PROJECT 1

Project 1 focused on investigating and analyzing 20th Century/conte mporary houses and their designers. My partner, Liz Morales, and I chose to research the Esherick House by Louis Kahn. We first researched Louis Kahn and his architecture style to better understand his design for The Esherick Hous e; this allowed us utilize similar design choices in our later re nditions of the house and how it interacts with its site.

Project 2 we worked individually to create a piece of concept art and an 18” x 18” x 18” model. From analyzing The Esherick House, I chose to focus on the materiality of the house, as well as, the relationship between interior and exterior space.

PROJECT 3

The final project of Design II asked us to create a cabin based off elements from our case study house. For this project, it was extremely important to understand the site and its effect on our cabin design.

This project required a class proposed site plan and model; from there, student chose a specific site parcel to build their cabin on.
