Villa Savoye Transformation

This project began with a series of diagramatic

studies of Le Corbusiers Villa Savoye and Carpenter

Center. Through these diagrams were to analize specific

conceptual, architectural, geometrical, and material

conditions that we discovered through both readings

and visiting the Carpenter Center.

We were then each assigned one of four sites in

which we were to reconfigure the Villa Savoye to fit our

site.

Our design must preserve the critical design concepts,

elements and organizing principles discovered through

our research and diagrams. It also had to have all of the

same programatic elements of the existing house. The

area of each room should be as close as possible to the

original with a 10%.

5

The site that I was assigned was in the

shape of an L with a building beside it.

When analyzing the site I noticed that the

shape of the building was similar to that

of the Carpenter Center and the L-shape

was similar to that of the lung shapes of

the Carpenter Center. So I decided to

incorporated this into my design.

Next I establish a grid system. I did this

by taking the corner square that the site

created and copied it up and to the side

creating a more proportional site. I then

used this to create a sub grid.

6

STEP TWO:

Took this square and copied it up and to the side inorder to create a more proportional site.

STEP THREE:

Next I created a grid system inorder to create the shape of my building and to layout columns.

7

STEP ONE:

Noticed that the corner of the L-Shaped sited created a perfect square.

8

I then used this sub grid to created the

lung shape for my design. I did so by

connecting multiple radius. This lung

shape can be seen on all floors of my

design.

The top study model is of the Carpenter center showing the two lungs with a cube as a core.

Next model shows the two primary circulation in the Villa Savoye. The experiencial ramp and the easy access staircase.

Outdoor Café

Our assignment was to design an Outdoor café

located at the Christian Science Center. The purpose

for this café was to create a second gathering place to

balance the popular circular fountain at the north-east

end of the site.

Our designs had to open up views, to encourage

people watching for those who do not choose to sit at

the café, and to create alternative movement patterns

across the site.The café was to have primarily exterior

seating, with a small glass enclosed interior seating area

and service counter.

After visiting the site I noticed that there are two

different characteristics to the either ends of the site. To

the west of the site is more residential and to the east is

the city.

22

So for my design I wanted to have this view

that opens up to the Mother Church. To make the

Mother Church the main focus and to restrict the

views to the city and the congestion of the city

My design consists of a single metal frame

that wraps around this view to the Mother Church. I

made the front of the building lower which not only

allows for clearstory windows but also creates this

precession of short to taller space.

This is a diagramatic model that shows my idea of the structure shown by museum board wrapping around this view to the Mother Church shown by the pink foam.

This is a second study model which shows the proccess and is very similar to my final design.

Boston Ballet SchoolAnnex

This Boston Ballet School Annex is located on

Warren Street in the South Boston. It is to house, for a

period of up to four months, a notable visiting dance

artist. Who will select six students who will study and live

within the annex.

In addition to the residential component of this

annex, it included a multi-purpose room that would be

used as a practice/rehearsal studio space or for small

performances or exhibits. Also, another smaller studio

and a shared common room for the residents would be

included into the 2,800 square foot program.

During our design process we were to consider the

size and hierarchy of these components.
