GSA-Unit 14 UJ act 2.2 project MI CASA / SU CASA
ASSERTING MY PARTNER'S HOUSE TO MY OWN DESIRE:
The second part Mi Casa su Casa part 2.2 studio required
that one take his / her partner’s home and assert his / her wildest dreams. One
need to embrace or reject their history and make a case for it. And the idea of
architecture as inherited infrastructure should be explored. Being that I grew
up at the farm in a typical farm house and on the other hand left the city life
during school and work I happened to choose a typical city / modern city house
from my partner. I chose to compare his and my life style and unpacked common interests
that we both similarly have, I have than realised we have similar life style
and share common interests and this process allowed me to embrace his history
and the case made resulted in a design that suit both of us, a house that
serves / cater for both own career interests and more of a working conventional
on both options.
