ARCH112 MIDTERM

In Arch112 midterm, some groups were created randomly by our instructors and every five person responsible for both drawing and model of choosen Structures. Our Structure is Gerrit Rietveld's Schroeder House. This house is in Holland and its location has some traditional buildings. When we look at this building, this is much more innovative structure than others even it was built in 1924. Also this building is one of the best examples of De-Stijl architecture. While this building use actively since 1985, after Mrs.Schroeders death, it was started to use as a museum. Also in 2 December 2000, it became the member of UNESCO list of  Herritage sites. 

Now my turn. My Drawings include 2 Plan, 2 Section and Two elevation. Also when i create my model I always care abstract idea and create my model in the light of abstraction. Here is my drawings and different views of my model
