| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to reveal the roles and characteristics of transition space by analyzing the Maison Curutchet of Le Corbusier in La Plata of Argentina. This house is not an independent work, but rather one of a 30 year series of studies made by Le Corbusier about the question of dwelling and urbanism. In this small site, 2 different programs coexist, a house for a family and a clinic for Dr. Curutchet. This house especially raises various questions about the relationship between public space and private space, inside / outside, opening / closing, up /under, front / back, and so on. Through the analysis of this house, it is possible to clarify the relationship between transition space and its duality. This study will be organized as list below : 1) Analyzing the architectural space of the Maison Curutchet 2) Study on the roles of transition space in this maison 3) Study on the characteristics of the transition space. A comprehension of this transition space is proposed as a resolution for the co-existence of multi-use buildings in urban contemporary architecture. |
