Final Drawings

Drawing 1:

This axonometric drawing is used to analyse the structure of the Villa Savoye. I have split each of the levels in order to show the important structural features, mainly the rectangular floor slabs and coloums arranged in a manipulated grid formation. I have also used pencil to shade the major parts of the house, the most important of which is the outdoor courtyard and loungeroom located on the 1st floor of the house. I did this to differentiate the public from the private spaces within the house.
-this drawing has a scale of 1:200




Drawing 2:

This drawing shows the ground floor plan and Section A of the Villa.
-all floor plans are scaled at 1:100









Drawing 3:

My third drawing shows the 1st floor level of the villa as well as an axonometric scaled at 1:150.
I chose this angle for the axonometric because it show the most important features of the house, those being the ramp and central courtyard/lounge area. I also included the beginnings of the driveways which lead to the house.





Drawing 4:


This drawing shows section b
e which cuts across the ramp while showing the stairs which go through the house. I chose this section because of its ability to show both methods of ascending through the house. The drawing also shows the 1st floor plan.





Drawing 5:
This drawing is also an axonometric of the villa which has been split into each of the three levels. I have used this diagram to analysis the circulation through the house. I have used circles an arrows to show the major cirulcation routes. I have also used this diagram to show how the non structural walls are used to divide up the rectangular spaces of each level. It shows the major parts of the villa. I have done this by drawing in the walls and using a thick dark lines on the tops of each wall.
