House 9
Skyros
The design of this house provided an opportunity
to work with a concept inspired by Le Corbusier, who was himself
inspired by the architecture of Skyros, in particular the traditional
cellular houses with their characteristic mezzanines at the
rear of the living area. Perhaps this project repatriates the
original idea.
The spaces of the house are arranged in four
connected towers which are reminiscent in section and plan of
the Maison Citrohan and Maison des Artisans. This represents
an attempt to synthesise a plan-libre inscribed within a volume-form
concept which is analogous in its dimensions to the houses of
the island.
