Six approaches to layout a successful space
After we have completed the bubble diagram, site analysis and preliminary design, often we are stuck in determine how to lay out appropriate lines to a successful space. By laying your design on one of the six grids and follows each approach’s rule, a satisfying result can easily be obtained. 6 examples are as follows:
1. Rectilinear: A design approach uses vertical and horizontal lines on a square grid. A very orderly, expected, rigid and forceful approach.
2. Rectilinear – 45: A design approach introduces vertical, horizontal and 45 degree lines on a square grid. An active, bold, dynamic and exciting approach.
3. Radial: A design approach uses various sizes of circles that branch out from a central point and multidirectional straight lines on a radial grid. An interesting, flamboyant, maze-like and progressive approach.
4. Art and Tangent: A design approach comprised of horizontal, vertical, and 45 degree lines, and quarter, half, three-quarter and full circles on a square grid. A soft, soothing, pleasing and refined approach.
5. Irregular: An approach contains vertical, horizontal, 45 degree, and multidirectional lines on a square grid. An exciting, dynamic, fluctuating, and intriguing approach.
6. Curvilinear: A design approach consists of compound curves and the absence of straight lines on a square grid. A very sensual, serene, organic and graceful approach.
