PARTI DIAGRAM CONCEPT SKETCHES

I have decided to experiment with different mediums to show the distinct differences between the courtyard, the corridor and the matrix within the villa savoye.

LE CORBUSIER VILLA SAVOYE, PARIS

FLY THROUGH THE VILLA SAVOYE

Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye (1929 -31) - Poissy Paris

The Villa Savoye, situated at Poissy outside of Paris, is an iconic architectual example of early moderism.

The house has address the "five points" of a new aesthetic architecture. The design of the house goes against the traditional codes of residential architecture and represents a new vision in the form of functional architecture.

Vertical circulation is facilitated by ramps as well as stairs and the geometry of the house is designed to ensure that as people move through the spaces they experience harmony between the architectural forms and the play of light.
