First Floor Plan @ 1:50, this plan indicates how the building sits in the landscape, the south deck meets the contours of the land hence not requiring balustrading, the east deck mimics the fall of the roof. Also shown is the structural columns that support the roof and the way they sit within the landscape and how the shape and define spaces in and around the building. The large roofs shelter spaces beyond the circumference of the dwelling hence this coupled with the angled supports creates further living spaces within the environment.
Ground Floor Plan @ 1:50 indicates the stump grid, location of water tanks and how the shower and toilet is accessed via a decked path, the decking continues inside the cylindrical rooms however it runs in the opposite direction.
Roof Plan @ 1:50, this gives a rough indication of the heights of the roof, and indicates their surface area and how they sit above the buildings. This plan was fundamental in drawing our sections and elevations as like in the design process when it came to our final drawings the roof proved the most difficult to draw. Hence as we were working as a team and each member working on different drawings it was essential to have one source of information that meant the drawings were consistent.
Rather then using text this diagram was integral in conveying several of our design and function concepts, protection againt prevailling winds and the way our roof functioned were elements that we evolved over the duration of the project.
