House Type

10
- Determining the type of house (i.e. bungalow, split level, bi-level, two storey, etc.)
to be designed should be a direct result of developing the floor layout as it best relates
to the site. The design process (Stage I - Conceptual Design) accounts for
Characteristics of the land that influence position and orientation of the structure.
If, for example, the site slopes to some degree, it may be advantageous to
Choose one type of house over another, as illustrated.
- It is most convenient to position the main floor as near to ground level as possible.
A split level, for example, adjusts to a sloping lot well, with the main floor
stepped down from the upper level to follow the slope of the lot.
- Bungalow: Single main floor level with ground level entrance. Main advantage
simplest to design and build.

11
- Raised Bungalow: Slightly higher profile than bungalow with greater number of
exterior steps to main floor. Main advantage foundation may be built with larger
basement windows.
- Bilevel Higher profile with two levels. Ground level entrance half way between
floors. Main advantage the exposure of foundation wall above ground allows for
larger windows and a more livable lower level.
- Split Level Two adjacent but offset floor levels above ground.
Main advantage allows separation of living and working areas from sleeping area.

12
- Storey and One Half Ground level main floor entry with steep pitched roof
allowing partial development of attic. Main advantage attic floor level
development at minimal extra cost.

Case study -1 :- Falling water
Architecture of Falling water
What is Architecture?
The word architecture has two meanings. Architecture is:
1. The activity of designing and planning buildings
2. The style of a building Every building is built for a reason. Some buildings are meant to be
lived in, while others are built to be businesses, schools, palaces, and more! We can learn a lot
when we look closely at buildings, especially about the people who built or lived in them, how
they were built, and what they were used for. Buildings come in all shapes, sizes, and materials.
Some buildings are so beautiful or interesting, they become famous!
Falling water :-Fallingwater is the name of a very special house that is built over a waterfall.
Frank Lloyd Wright, America’s most famous architect, designed the house for his clients, the
Kaufmann family. Fallingwater was built between 1936 and 1939. It instantly became famous,
and today it is a National Historic Landmark.
BUILDING MATERAL

- Wright used only 4 materials to build Falling water they are:-
1- Sandstone

Site Plan Drawing
Bailey House, Case Study House
"...The site for CSH #21 is a level building pad in the hills with a sweeping view to the south. The orientation of
glazed walls is north and south, with solid walls on the east and west. The basic design element of the plan is an
island core of division between the living area and the two bedrooms. By disengaging the baths from the
exterior walls and facing them onto a court, the curtain walls were simplified.
"The house, surrounded completely by pools, introduces a new concept in making water an integral structure
and landscape element. Brick terraces, spanning the pools, lead to the living areas, and the terraces add another
plane and texture to the interplay between water and structure. During the hot months the water is pumped
hydraulically from the pool to the roof gutter to fall through the scuppers and circulate and aerate the pool.
"The house is a series of 10- by 22-foot bays 9 feet high; each frame is composed of an 8-inch I-beam, floor
channel and three 4-inch wide flange columns. The frames were shop- fabricated and delivered to the site in one
piece. The two exterior bays came shop-equipped with a 4-inch channel which tied into the columns at sill
height..."
The Creator's Words
"Industry has not learned the difference between what is beautiful in its simplicity and what is ugly although
equally simple...."
"The pressure is so great that the architect is a captive. He functions best as a free agent."
—Pierre Koenig. from Esther McCoy. Case Study Houses 1945-1962. p118.
