Exercise I: Architecture Analysis Was assigned 3 precedences, Group 0; 733-44 CE Virupaksha Temple, Pattadakal (India), canonical to the discipline of architecture buildings while houses like Villa Pisani designed by Andrea Palladio and House of Cowes by James Sterling are based on a nine-square grid.

First, we will document the houses, developing all plans, sections, and diverse project-specific axonometric projective geometry exercises. The point of the analysis is to teach us how to read architecture, how to analyze and understand how architects activate specific to architecture ideas, and eventually to develop a theory of the object of study. In many of these examples, I was able to develop a generic organizing principle as a description of type, typology, organization, circulation, service/served space, program, and other considerations such as frontality, center/periphery, ground relationship, orientation, etc. Having a step by step sequential construction of a possible logical projective composition of the analyzed house starting from an abstract nine-square grid an ending on the house. Giving us the ability to compare the different organizational structures and the logic of each of their analysis project systems that organize space relative to a structural system ad tectonics.

Exercise II: Architecture Representation In coordination with ARCH 340 Visualization III, Design I will work its preliminary design concepts using as a point of departure, a nine-square grid vectorial frame-space which will be first described, then projected using projective geometry (Monge, Axonometric Projection 0/90, 60/60, 45/45), then analyzed, and ultimately formulated typologically through specific software. Gradual variations of the spatial proposals will be implemented to aim for a typological and structural organizing condition dependent on a system of representation. Each student will work with different media to understand the logic of each representational interface and aiming for the activation of a generative moment.

I developed three free drawings for each house analysis, various conditions of center and corners, solid and void, layered spaces, zones, organization based on each precedent. The last chart is a combination of all the diagrams I used that end up being my project. For example, I used displacement of the matrix that I pulled out of Villa Pisani while in Virupaksha Temple, Pattadakal I used displacement of the columns till it became one extracted the inverse (Solid and Void) vs. in House of Cowes I stretched and shrunk the grid to see a different displacement.

Later on, I start using my displacement of the Villa Pisani Grid to extract the architectural elements, separating them by planes, columns, and volume (solid and Void).In these diagrams, the “L” represents perimeter while the “U” shape talks about connectors/skinny zones. Doing this process help me define the levels of my Un-House by choosing different conditions

Exercise III: Ground, Gravity, and Horizon & Exercise IV: Architectural Elements Determine difference from an abstract geometrical condition, entrance and circulation imply subject-object-space relationships that qualify architecture form in relation to the horizon, the force of gravity, the massing of the ground as a reference plane, and as a solid volume, etc. Understanding the difference between a four-square grid organization and a nine-square grid organization (void in the center, center, nesting, corners- center, etc.) as the core of the matrix.

On this chart, we can see a different iteration of the Un-House, frame, the plane in different conditions between volume and columns vs. solid and void (volume), and the end result is a combination of both diagrams, representing volume in an enclosed area and special volume.

Exercise V: Program I develop an “Un-House” for a family, a 3 generation family. Due to the social transformations in the recent economic crisis anticipate the possibility of not being able to sell the family investment as a real estate turn and leave, having to sell your house, and joining another generation’s family home because of the economic crisis. Also forced not to leave the house and develop hybrid situations transforming existing secondary spaces into separate quarters with independent access. These issues present cultural and sociological premises to be analyzed studied and critiqued and that affect architecture typologies as a representation of cultural and economic values.

The 3 Generation Un-House begins on the top floor where the mother and her preschooled kid will be living while the next floor down will be a gathering area on where everyone in the family can gather and spend time together, whole lastly the last floor is dedicated as the grandma’s own floor giving both the generation’s their individual space and gathering area.

Exercise VI: Site Specificity: Neighboring Relationships The prevailing organizational and programmatic ideas developed during the semester was tested and displaced by site condition. The project will be understood as an integral single understanding between inside-outside. The site will also be a factor to displace further limits in projects, object-frame relationships, and original organizations. Preliminary site decisions will be challenged by a general group-machinic site and its emerging adjoining conditions. Decisions in regards to external architectural problems such as orientation and the relationship to neighboring projects (i.e., context) were made relative to the emergence of multiple site conditions we have to acknowledge and analyze, including topographic continuity, circulation, and the shifting boundaries and spaces in-between projects.
