Thinking More Abstractly

I have created two sets of abstract plans. I became committed to combining orthagonal lines with diagonal and organic ones. Le Corbusier used this technique often. The second plan strayed away from weaving, and is more of a sprawling plan than a condensed one. The second immediately became my new favorite. From the second plan, I created a pattern diagram using a thick, black marker and then from that I made a grid. The grid breaks down where the organic shapes occur. Lastly, I used the grid as an overlay to begin sectioning off potential rooms, hallways, and pathways. Sections were explored but they were very unsuccessful.

The next step is to create a section and then to use the section to choose a site and a program.
