11 URBAN HOUSE FOR AN ARTIST<br />
More info<br />
For this project I chose an artist and based on that artist’s work<br />
designed a house for the artist. This made for quite a challenge,<br />
because it is difficult to turn a two dimensional work of art into a<br />
three dimensional building design. The concept for this project<br />
was based on the work of Piet Mondrian. There are three unifying<br />
elements recognized in the work of Piet Mondrian. The black<br />
lines, seem to guide us across the paintings like paths; the light<br />
areas which appear to be open space;and the colored areas which<br />
appear to be closed space. When translated into architecture it<br />
became obvious that the design of this building should focus<br />
heavily on paths and open space leaving only few closed spaces<br />
throughout the house.
