Structure - This diagram was the most straight forward, Villa Muller has thick structural outer walls and four main columns
Geometry – At first look geometry wasn’t too obvious within Villa Muller, I don’t think it was an overriding concern. I focused on the shifting geometry of the room volumes in section and the general orthogonal nature of the plan.
Program – Loos believed that each room, having a different function purpose should have a different height and shape to accommodate that function. In drawing out a series of important rooms in section with their plan underneath I was hoping to demonstrate the varying shapes and sizes of the rooms. The inclusion of detail was to convey how meticulously Loos planned each room to suit its program.
Circulation – The circulation in Villa Muller is rather complex and there is no clear level rather a series of connected spaces. I overlaid the stairs and doors of every plan to try and convey this complex system. Circulation in section reveals the lack of levels and also makes evident the contrast between the rapidly ascending staircase intended for servant use and the more gradual rise of the stairs for the owners of the Villa.
Enclosure – Loos stated that "The building should be dumb outside and only reveal wealth inside." This is most evident as the somewhat sterile nature of the exterior appears completely removed from the warm and luxurious inside. My diagram aimed to show this in entirely removing the internal plan from the heavy exterior walls.
