Poches of the House for Dr. Bartholomeusz

From the Poches of The house for Dr Batholomeuez it is evident that the lower spaces of the building are fairly open. The ground floor displays that there is free circulation and openness to light. Within this respective floor there is also evidence of a balance between enclosed space and the openness of the courtyards. The openness is not found in the top level; however this level does have exception access to light. The section displays the shift of program between the open spaces and the solid forms; it also establishes the behavior of the open space, the enclosure and light.

Privacy and public

Gregory Bawa’s building has public and private interaction . There are specific parts of the house which are exclusively private; there are also zones where it is semi private and parts open for the public. This element is also affected by the structure, program, enclosure and circulation of the building.

The circulation

The House for Dr Bartholomeusz has three main paths of circulations, one of them is along the longitudinal vertical path the other one follows the long side corridor and the final one follows up to the top floor. There would also be a number of minor paths that haven’t been identified which interweave with each other.

Built environment vs Openness.
