My first research is why I choose to build this specific part of villa muller. In my opinion, what villa muller means most to the architecture world is the introduction of raumplan - the concept of design spaces instead of levels and floors. My part includes most of the major space (salon, library, dining area and lady's bedroom) and the main circulation of the building that connecting these space together. I think it is the best section in this building that can represent the idea of "raumplan".

My second research focused on how Adolf loos handled the transition from public and private in villa muller.Simply said, the material getting richer as visitor going deeper into the building. Adolf loos create this interesting "journey" through the alternation of material richness.

My third research is about the circulation in muller house. Adolf loos designed two circulations - one for the owner and another for the servant. As you can see below in my research, the servant space tends to be small and stack together while the owner's space is much more open and comfortable. Also, Loos concerned a lot on the arrangement of the spaces so the servants wouldn't disturb the owners while they working in the house.
