PROJECT 1: VILLA MAIREA


PLANS, SECTION AND AXONOMETRIC

FLOOR PLAN

FIRST FLOOR PLAN

SECTION

AXONOMETRIC

The software that I used is Revit Architecture. Revit Architecture is a fantastic software for 3D modelling. However, the 2D drawings that they produce looks a little bit technical. In my opinion, Its a great tool for commercial activity but to achieve a conceptual drawings, Autocad is a better software to use. Furthermore, I'm still very new to this software, thus my ability to explore it is limited.

THE ANALYSIS


THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE MAJOR PART OF THE HOUSE

Aalto's ideas of the relationship between the spaces in the building is that the mot important part of the building must be at the center. In my opinion there are two important parts in this building which are the courtyard and the living room. He thought that every other spaces should connect to these important spaces.

THE CIRCULATION

The second analysis is the circulation. In my opinion, the circulation inside the building is very dynamic. In villa Mairea, there are a lot of steps and the floors is not all leveled. For example, it has a dented entrance and it has a higher level mezzanine inside the studio.

THE SITE ANALYSIS

The house is surrounded by forest. Aalto's idea is that the house seems like it filling the empty spaces of the landscape. As you can see, he made a lot of the interior to imitate the nature of the landscape. Aalto try to cover as much land as possible so that every part of the house have different views of the landscape.
