Project 2: Room and Narrative (Concept)

Space



My concept of space is from the traditional Chinese culture game named 'Tangram'.
'The tangram is a dissection puzzle consisting of seven flat shapes, called tans, which are put together to form shapes.'

And the diagram I showed above was the pati of my concept. You could see the tangram was square, so I also made this studio 10m*10m square. The main two parts, public & private, was seprated by the diagonal like the case study I did last building, Villa Savoye. And in the private space was also seprated to two parts, one for Relax and the other for Work. And since in my mind, every building need corridor or pervasion tansfered between different space, so I divided another two parts from the private space for this using. Also as I said before the client was a withdrawn man, he do not need too much space for meeting. Finally I placed some tree to make the building looked more activity and natural.

Project 2: Room and Narrative (Drawing and Site)


The drawing I chosen was done by Johannes Vermeer and named 'The Geographer'.
From the drawing we could see a male geographer(designer) worked very hard and serviously alone, so my narrative was 'A studio for a withdrawn, male designer to work, relax and small meeting place.
And since the designer in the drawing were looking outside for some nice view, that means he enjoyed nice sit plan for the location of his studio. And then I found the place have nice view of lake and mountain, also very quiet. It was in the north Beijin, named hongluo lake. The building in my concept might sit on the lake, and a bridge was connected building with each side of riparian.
And the climate in Beijing was similar to Sydney's, and light was directly from the sourth.
