Scale 1:200 @ A3



ENCLOSURE:
- a barrier between the house and the street through the implementation of an unadorned, plane facade, and minimal glazing; small and irregularly spaced. The interaction between interior and exterior is greatest on the North (left of plan) and East (top of plan) facades which do not face the street.

PROGRAM:
- Service (blue): the entirety of lowest level (household heirarchy), and South-East corner (a separation between the street and private domain).
- 'Public' (yellow): the majority of entry level 3, becoming increasingly more private as you move through the corridor to the semi-private spaces on level 4.
- Private (red): the majority of level 5 and 6.




CIRCULATION:
- Service: simple, efficient, stairwell.
- Public/Private: concerned with the creation of flow, spaces and vistas rather than efficiency.

STRUCTURE:
- thick load-bearing exterior walls, and at least 4 significant points for post and beam structure within the exterior walls.


GEOMETRY:
- as a whole from the exterior, a simple rectangle.
- while the house is rich in spatial qualities (such as height changes and split or offset levels), the interior is essentially made up of a 3x3x2 grid, which closely follows the structure of the building.


OVERALL:
- a hybrid of matrix and victorian/corridor (entry level; guests are given a sense of procession).
- the interior is essentially made up of a 3x3x2 grid, which closely follows the structure of the building.
