4/27/2017 - Tighten Up

       Over the week I started to lay out some plans. I started with the Pilotis. Le Corbusier uses the same sized columns on a grid. I didn't want to do the same things that he did so I decided to scatter the columns so they looked random. Looking back to the Maison Curutchet and the tree that runs through the building, the tree has a different diameter than the columns, and in a forest, all the trees are different. So I decided to pull inspiration from that and vary the diameters of the columns.
       I than started to "connect the dots" and outline walls and spaces. I then planned out what I thought a free facade would look like. Some I started laying out the main floor of the home and what that might look like. Through the sketching process, I started to blur some of the lines of the rules. But I think I need to be stricter with the rules. Twist and bend them, but don't break them. They need to be there.
