Model Making

The model appears simple to build from the exterior view....but it's quite complicated when it has brick vaults as ceilings. My impression was that Le Corbusier added these brick vaults as a traditional  Indian touch to the modern building because it was his concept he wanted to achieve. I think he did an awesome job of mashing the two together.

<-Ground up: Concrete slab, finish tiles, bearing walls, concrete beam (I believe this concrete beam is for aesthetic purpose and not for structure), brick vaults.

<-Final model : I added vaults to the model as well (which you can not see from this image - will update with image soon). I added it in because it's what make Villa Sarabhai interior space special. Other than that I enjoy making the slide! Best and most exciting exterior feature!
