PROJECT V: HIERARCHY
House and Studio for a Painter
Theory:
"The principle of hierarchy implies that in most architectural compositions, real differences exist among their forms and spaces. These differences reflect the degree of importance of these forms and spaces, and the functional, formal and symbolic roles they play in their organization. The values expressed may be individual or collective, personal or cultural. The manner in which these functional or symbolic differences among a building's elements are revealed is critical to the establishment of a visible, hierarchical order among its forms and spaces." - Francis D.K. Ching,
