Studio Exercise 3

The first part of this week's studio was to put together a material's pack of the building that I selected. The material's pack included plans, elevations, sections and 3D views if any. The built form that I chose is the S House by Nicolas Schuybroek. Below are the materials that I found on this house.

3D Floor Plan

3D Section

The next part of this week's tutorial was to use the materials that we gathered on our built form and we had to -

• use colour to represent the difference between public, semi-private, and private spaces (plan and section).
• use colour (on another set of drawings) to represent the primary, secondary, and tertiary movement paths through the building (plan and section).
• Use line work to indicate the major 'edges' and primary forms (primitives?) that can be extracted from the built form. Simplify the building to these forms in one or two 3D views.

The main primitive used in the S House is a rectangular prism that forms the majority of the spaces.
