Antic Hospital de la Santa Creu, Carrer Egipcíaques
Architect Joan Rodon Bonet (renovation and new extension) 1998
Assignment Spatial and Formal Volumes
Begin sketching in the interior courtyard. Using axonometric, create a 3-D diagrammatical abstraction of the formal and spatial volumes of the complex. Remember, volume can be articulated as mass or void.
Choose a portion of the complex that you just recorded and document the evolution of your spatial perception as you move through one or between two volumetric forms. Remember, perception is the product of all your senses not just visual.
Questions to consider
Is there a series of underlying primary volumes?
Was the transformation of the primary volume/s an additive or subtractive process?
What is the spatial language of the new extension? Does it address the language of the old?
