volume sketches






some very rough volume studies for the present project. the whole idea is that the size of each person's apartment is based on the person's income * 3, which is the normal maximum limit of how much one can get in a house-loan in norwegian banks. since the people in my project (real persons taken from a random newspaper on the web) have different incomes, the sizes of their apartments vary from 14 m2 to 153 m2.
the total size of the project is 10 apartments, and the site I've chosen is roughly 20 by 6 meters. the boxes in the model are 3 mtrs high and 6 mtrs deep. the length is given by the total square meters per apartment, which again is depending on the inhabitants income.
