Brick House














Pretty typical, and the same as the first idea for the Trondheim house. Some things work well, like the division of social and personal space, which I think is particularly important here since its student housing. I also like that bricks can fullfill the desire for the "viral typology" (ugh) that they ask for. Such an archaic viral typology! The potential for shared or doubling up of the social spaces with two or more Brick Houses are built next to each other is nice.

But it is of course very BIG, and really not all that compelling (yet? at all?) but its a start!

Generally though I like the simplest one, the one with just four "bricks". I like it less when it becomes more like pixels.

Ok, Im drawing a blank at the moment so who knows what will come next. Maybe nothing! Its hot so Im going to go home to some AC now.

Say hello to Iwan!
