As I learned in the studio, I realised the importance of defining the space within the drawing. The point is to show the initial idea of the building by free-hand drawing.

Parti Drawing - Based on my own understanding

As I go through the case studies on Villa Muller, I found the idea behind the complicate drawing. The stair shows the idea of 'connection' which refer to the way how the sapces within the building link to each other. Also, I notice that the balcony on level four is another key point of this building that shows the interection between the building and outside social environment.

DESIGN STUDIO3: Project 1 - Villa Muller House _ Research

In prague, one of Loos's seminal building has been rescued from neglect and obscurity and faithfully restored.

while many twentieth-century building evoke a strong emotional response, only a handful of small-scale works have the same effect. Within this category belongs adolf Loos' Villa Muller in Prague.

The villa was designed within a few weeks in 1928 and built in Prague 1929-30 for Frantisek Muller, an Enguneer and partner of a large construction firm, Kapsa & Muller. It stands on a steep slope overlooking surrounding villas and close to a main avenue to the city centre. At first sight it appears almost too simplistic, its exterior refusing to divulge interior splendour and fulfilling Loos' notion ehat 'the building should be dumb ouside and only reveal wealth inside'.

RESTART MYSELF..KEEP GOING!!!

As I didn't put much attempt into building the personal blog. I feel that there is something missing during my time as the blog is the record of our whole work. So, restarting myself will be the beginning of this semester. Will putting all my attempt again and consentrating back on the design.......

..........keep going ............

Summary of Studying in ARCH1142

As I have taken those three workshops, I found that they are all about understanding the space in terms of architectural thinking. It mainly concentrating on the movement within a certain place by using variety media, such as computer, hand drawing and making model. Although they are using different method, they portray same thing. Just because of that, the undersatanding of architectural space has been improved comprehensively.
