Planar Geometry

MAPPING THE VOID

The traditional floorplan is an exercise in confinement. Hallways dictate movement, and rigid walls divide life into isolated compartments. We approach the architectural plan as an open canvas of structural grids—mapping the void rather than walling off the solid.

Eradicating the Corridor

Corridors are wasted architectural breath. By centralizing services—plumbing, HVAC, and structural cores—into monolithic island hubs, we allow the perimeter of the structure to remain entirely open. Circulation becomes dynamic, weaving around solid functional blocks rather than funneling through narrow tubes.

Programmatic Zones vs. Rooms

Instead of defining a "kitchen" or a "living room," we define zones of activity by changing floor textures, sinking living pits, or altering ceiling heights. The spatial flow remains unbroken. A transition from polished concrete to raw timber dictates a shift in psychological state, achieving privacy through distance and acoustic baffling rather than drywall doors.
