My Sister's House

In my group luscious, we came up with two primary design styles for My Sister’s house. We used styles from Isami Noguchi and Mies Van Der Rohe. We looked at how we could fuse the two styles without taking away from either style.
We started out with the idea of connections. We felt that connections were a huge part of a building. We focused on connections from how one room connects to another to how the women connect to the building.
We are joining the biomorphic shapes of Noguchi with the very straight, hard lines of Mies. We feel that by joining the two together, we can create a very unique building a great sense of connection.
