sound waves

inspired by the undulation of sound waves, this
model explores heaviness punctured by light. by offsetting the panels or modules, the model gains
a dynamic mass. in the dwelling, the study model’s clear material is expressed by small windows that let
light into the rooms. although in the study model the
heaviness was expressed only in the form, the dwelling includes a heavy material, concrete, to accentuate it.
the public areas are defined in spaces larger in every dimension than their smaller, private counterparts.
these portions are separated by a two-part stair that is partially public space and partially private space.
