iar301. assignment 2.0 - schematic design.

For studio assignment 2, each of us in Travis's studio designed a Solar Decathlon-style house based on a personal analysis of the way we live within our own dwellings.

My design was grounded by several basic ideas:
-being sheltered/surrounded by nature
-the articulation of corners
-public and private separation
-capture


Inspiration came from nature in general (specifically, dense foliage and greenery) and the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, although not initially. Rather, my design had already progressed quite a bit before I realized how it related to any design precedents.


Some process work:


The design:

public entrance

private entrance
