Based on the theme of passion, this poetic project attempts to address the meeting, marriage and separation of a French art teacher (the client) and her late husband. The follie, as the function describes, is located on the client’s property in Giverny, France.  Situated in the woods but overlooking an expansive hay field, the project responds to certain conditions of intimacy that are embedded in our subconscious.

Sense of Space



Senses.jpg



The senses operate at different distances from the body
An understanding of this principle is critical to any proposal dealing with intimacy.



Gathering vs. Isolation



Park guell analysis.jpg


Concave or "Sociopetal" spaces encourage gatherings based on their geometry.
The opposite is true for "Sociofugal" spaces.

Encouraging Communication through employment
of sociopetal/sociofugal spaces.


Psychological Contributors



Publicly / Private Space



A room of one's own.jpg


Everyone needs privacy at some point.
Therefore, small private spaces should be provided
in any public space that hopes to be successful.

Centered Common Areas



Common areas at the heart.jpg



Social space is a need of all groups.
By providing common areas near smaller alcoves.

Entrance Room



Entrance room.jpg


The threshold is a powerful communcation tool.
The act of entering and exiting a not the same,
thus should each be treated with respect.

Intimacy Gradient



Intimacy gradient.jpg



Space should be organized in relation to increasing privacy the deeper one progresses toward the center

Protection and View



Heirarchy of open space.jpg


Provide protection to the rear and a view to a larger open space.
This will encourage gatherings and it disarms the natural human fear of being surprised.

Vertical Intimacy Gradient



Section.jpg


A reference project for the idea of an intimacy gradient.
The most public spaces are on the ground floor.
The second level is only for 2 people.
The third level just for one.
