The absence of any apparent connection as a single object between the perspectives is quite astonishing! Mookie Wilson - from some key sections (say 2 and 5) I feel like the courtyard will be a pleasant and well connected private area (in a communal sense) connecting the key public areas (in a familial sense?). OV - agree that some sections tend to feel compartmentalized - but for me the plans show a different spatial arrangement, I hope this is because of the sections all cutting through the courtyard acting against the overall layout of spaces circumferencing it. definitely not one of the more trendy 'open plan' houses! would love to see photos of this project once completed!

The human dimension seems completely lost, figuratively and literally. The relationship of scale to space appears like an afterthought and you can see this happening in the section drawing cut through the pool and courtyard (section 05). Im not sure if its just the way the project is visually represented, but the spaces feel very static and compartmentalized. I agree with Bo Lucki’s comment.

The interiors to this project are a disaster- stretched way too thin to attempt to fill up the form driven volume. There doesn't seem to be an idea to describe the circulation or the relationship between interior and exterior. Any attempt to create a home based around a courtyard needs to engage the courtyard. In this case it just sort of seems like leftover space. Blech. The interiors to this project are a disaster- stretched way too thin to attempt to fill up the form driven volume.
