FAMOUS PEOPLE, FAMILIAR FACES - DIAGRAMMATIC ABSTRACTION

We are required to investigate and to explore how spaces are created from the making of architectural elements: architectonics.-solid, planes, lines and frames. Upon completion of the project we should be able to achieve a level of understanding on the works assigned and will be able to apply the idea and concept to out upcoming projects.
 

The idea of using pure and diagrammatic models ( 12 models ) to express the architectural idea would also be in cooperated into this assignment.

Our group consisted of 6 members. We were to research on the selected masterpiece by famous architect. Masterpiece that we had given was Villa Tugendhat , by Mies van der Rohe. It is truly a stunning masterpiece which located at Brno

( Czech Republic ). 

 

Keywords that we used to make our diagramatic models are : contrast , massing , spatial hierachy , repetitive to unique ,                                                                                                                                 additive & subtractive , structure , circulation , geometry ,                                                                                                                                   space within space , natural lighting , rectilinear to form ,                                                                                                                                   overlapping contour.

Great experience for me throughtout this first studio project in semester 2 , it wasn't just a project, it was a lesson which we all learn among each other. Throughout this project, I am able to understand more on certain masterpiece by famous architect like how they design or where are the inspirations came from. After the project , I have great understanding on basic architectural compositions of solids, planes, lines and frames.
