New Design Trials 

After the Prejury 1, throughout the discussions and suggestions, I did research about my design, case study and form. I draw some sketches which can be helpful to solve some problems about my design. Here are my sketches which contained form and function of case studies and with added my design trials.

Research, Annotated Bibliography

Giedion, Siedion. Space, Time & Architecture/ The growth of a new tradition, 1938-1939

Since 1922, Le Corbusier use and developed the five principles of architecture. They are shown at their purest in his work which is Villa Savoie built at Poissy in 1928-1930.He always try to open up to the house to create new possibilities for connection between its interior and exterior and within the interior itself. In previous period, Le Corbusier’s houses had been built on rather narrow plans, in more or less close proximity to their neighbors. The site of Villa Savoie was completely isolated. This house is a cube elevated on pillars. The cube part is not a solid mass; it is hallowed out on both the southeast and southwest side so that when the sun comes up the light floods the whole interior instead of merely skimming the outer wall. There is really no façade and no back or front, since the house is open on every side. There are two ramps in Villa Savoie, one of ramp is inside, the other one is continues along an outer wall to the roof garden. The use of a ramp as a means of linking different horizontal levels with interior and exterior spaces can be followed in Le Corbusier’s work up to his latest buildings.

Hopkins, Owen. Reading Architecture / A Visual Lexicon, 2012

The features of Villa Savoie are;

  • Ribbon Windows: A series of windows at the same height and separated only by mullions which form a continuous horizontal band or ribbon across a building.
  • Flat Roof: A roof whose pitch is almost horizontal (a slight incline is usually retained to ensure that water runs off).
  • Curvilinear Concrete Superstructure: A superstructure is a structure sitting on top of the main body of the building. This one is curvilinear- composed from one or several curved lines.
  • Mullion: A vertical bar or member dividing an aperture.
  • Cement- rendered wall: A thick plaster or cement coating applied to a wall to make it smooth and waterproof.
  • Piloti: Pilotis are piers or columns that raise a building above ground level, freeing space for circulation or storage in the space underneath.
  • Ground floor storage and service area

The Sketch Problem “Quotation”

Throughout our case study, making a quotation is wanted to our last model. I thought that my case studies and again I review my houses list and I decided to use Villa Malaparte’s spatial relation. I added new part to my model from Villa Malaparte. Here are Villa Malaparte and my initial version of my model.

And the combination quoted part and my model. I used the features which are creating new spatial experience and to make the roof functional.

Case Study&Collage&Models

Hi! As I said before I studied and researched about my case studies. My case studies were;

  1. Le Corbusier, Villa Savoye / Poissy, France, 1929
  2. Adalberto Libera, Villa Malaparte / Naples,Italy, 1938
  3. Richard Meier, Saltzman House / Long Island, 1969
  4. Kazuyo Sejima, Ryue Nishizawa & Associates / SANAA, Moriyama Apartments / Japan, 2005
  5. Erkut Şahinbaş, Atrium Evi, Muğla, 2014
  6. Rem Koolhaas / OMA, Villa Dall’aAva / France, 1991
  7. Shigeru Ban, Glass Shutter House / Japan, 2003
  8. John Hejduk, Wall House 2 / Netherlands, 2001
  9. Can Çinici, Microloft I Yarasa, İstanbul, 2013

Also my keywords were “UNSTITCHED THE SEAM” and “LAYERING REFLECTIVITY”.

Firstly I am grouping the house according to my researches and I determined some common points of houses. These common points are

  • Height Variations / Layers
  • Grille
  • Ribbon Windows
  • Transparency (Changeable or not Changeable)
  • Pilotis
  • Metal Shutters
  • Spiral Staircases

Throughout these researches, I produced this collage, to show the unstitched part I used color changing, also to represent the common point which are transparency and spiral staircases I created these relations and ongoing lines.

Then I started to produce model. Firstly I created two models. I used triangle elements to represent the reflectivity. Also to represent the I have prescribed the common point which is height variations ( layering), I used 3 different merge point and 3 different units to represent the common point. Here are my diagram and photos of model.

Here is my other model. I used layering with the creating spatial references and relations.

After the discussions, I created new model. I used black strips to support spatial organization. Also I used cardboard to show layering.

Then after discussions, I created new model to represent the features of houses which are roof garden and relation with nature. With the using architectural elements, I make the roof functional, usable. Also I used different layers which are related each other.
