Two versions of a flip flop house. This project was more about taking a key feature of Villa Planeix and doing the inverted version of that. For instance Villa Planeix has mainly load bearing walls; now they will be inverted to pilots. We design this process in 5 steps with the 5th model being the final product with all of the changes added. Then we do the same thing but starting with the last one. So if Pilots was the first change in the first set, it would then be the last step in the second set.

Next Step: Model

I started to look at different windows designed by Le Corbusier and I stumbled across a recent post regarding other famous architects and their windows. Really interesting and accurate. Architects and Their Windows
Thinking ahead, I have found a link to a video. This talks about how someone draws something without any lines however they still cut paper out. Im curious if this is what we will be doing for our next project. Cut Out Drawing no drawings, but many cuts.

This is the mock layout for the final presentation for Slim Fast Diet. 
*Some changes will occur*

The important aspects that are inside the new slim fast diet design is the idea of slope and how it plays a role in the model.
The first one shows the sections and how the height of the spaces look inside.

This section shows the section elevation of the all three buildings.
Our new project has to do with how slim this project can be without it being to overwhelming. Here is a portion of the master space. This shows that most of the needed pieces are integrated inside the wall to allow more room.
