"...Our
eyes are constructed to enable us to see forms in light. Primary
forms are beautiful forms because they can be clearly appreciated.
Architects today no longer achieve these simple forms..." L.C. [8]
schematic approach The design of the villa
is approached by the subdivision and substraction of the cubic volume
and by a series of vertical and horizontal planes.
volume The volume is placed on the southern
part of the site.
subdivision
The volume is sym- metrical subdivided into the proportion of 2-1-2-1-2
along its length and of 0.5-1.5-1.5-1.5-0.5 along the side.
symmetrical
substraction The volume is stepped down to the southern side directing
the terrace to the private garden. The northern side remains forming the
barrier between public and private zone.
asymmetrical
substraction Thru opening the western side of the volume the terraces
cascade towards the private garden.
