Project 1:Artifice, Villa Muller, The Model

Section Cut – We decided to remove just the West wall of the villa for the section cut as this keeps the model mostly intact, like the large, heavy cube like structure that the building is. In peeling back this wall all the essential features of Loos design are evident with the different height spaces connected and related to each other not in a series of levels.
Modelling materials – more apparent in this photo is the watercolour paper we decided to use to contrast the white card used for the exterior of the building. This was to demonstrate the detachment between exterior and interior. The texture and slight cream colour of the watercolour also helps to convey the rich nature of Loos interiors.
