Project 1: Part a: to see Final

This is the drawings of villa mairea, which has a 1:200 site plan and 1:50 representative part ground floor plan , elevation and sections. My idea for this is bringing the forest to the inside. In Finland, forest is an important factor for people's life. When the construction started, Alvar Aalto changed his plans to combine the house's separate formal rooms, which includes the art galley, living room, dining room and hall into one unity. As the result, there was a large ground floor with multiple functions and uses. But the columns play the role of defining different space in the large floor. As you can see from the part plan, the columns define the foyer on the south and main living area on the north and private area on the west. In addition, the most vivid part is about the staircase. The columns are put randomly or regularly. When clients goes upstairs, it seems like they are walking in the real forest. The random or regular arrangement for columns defines different areas in a large floor plan and it also brings the forest to the inside. It is not like a machine for living in. Instead, there suggests a more warm and harmonious life.
