Diagramming 

Some of my first sketchbook notes and thoughts on the house. I started to discover relationships between nature and the architecture, how the inhabitable volumes where placed on the site and how movement from one space to another was as much of an experience as the actual architecture.

After these first notes and "napkin sketches" I began further analyzing the site and the building at a bigger scale, starting from the top of the site and working my way down.                      

These diagrams start to show how boundaries are created by the house and how the sculptural basalt's sit on the roof deck.

An attempt a showing the different ramps and stairs that lead you down towards the main volumes of the house. Also highlighting the different planes and levels within the top roof deck.
