EXno.10: Dissection Project

You are going to make a set of drawings and models of a house designed in the 20th century. You will also be tested on your knowledge of ALL these houses. First, go to the library and research these projects:

LE CORBUSIER
Maison Curutchet, LaPlata, Argentina
House at Weissenhof, Stuttgart, Germany
Heidi Weber Pavilion, Zurich, Switzerland
Villa Shodan, Ahmedabad, India

RUDOLPH SCHINDLER
Lovell Beach House, Newport Beach, CA

MICHAEL GRAVES
Hanselman House, Ft-Wayne, IN

JOHN HEJDUK
Wall House
Bernstein House

RICHARD MEIER
Smith House, Darien, CT
Saltzman House, East Hampton, NY

PETER EISENMAN
House IV, Cornwall, CT

REM KOOLHAAS
Villa Dall’Ava, St-Cloud, Paris, France

LOUIS KAHN
Esherick House, Chestnut Hill, PA

Milam Residence, Jacksonville, FL

Choose one of these houses and collect everything you can about it from the library and the internet. Do an Avery Index search for periodicals on the structure. Make a binder of all the printouts and photocopies you get on the project.

Bring ALL of your research to class on Tuesday. We'll have a raffle of who gets to do what project based on who has the most research done.
