ARCH1201 - Assignment 1

MAISON BORDEUX - REM KOOLHAAS

In drawing axonometrics of the Bordeaux House, I intentionally drew each level on its own, considering each floor as its own entity linked by the building's moving element (the lift). In examining the circulation of the house, I considered those features which served as links between the distinctive levels. As a predominantly open plan house, I considered the links between the levels being the most significant.
