CRETTO DI GIBELLINA - ALBERTO BURRI

The town of Gibellina in Sicily was flattened by an earthquake in 1968 that killed hundreds and left the small town in ruins.

The artist and sculptor Alberto Burri coated the rubble of the city in white concrete with large enough cracks to walk in, resulting in a monumental and labyrinthine landscape artwork spanning over 85,000 square meters.

DRAWINGS - line drawings with some tone and texture.

top + bottom: SECTION PERSPECTIVES - the walls that are cut have poché or heavy line weight in order to show the section cut.

center: AXONOMETRIC DRAWING - seeing space and tectonic elements trough windows and openings gives the drawing depthl

1-8″ = 1′-0″ SCALE MODELS

image 1 (top):  Kolman Boye Architects; Ravine House, Skurusundet, Nacka, Sweden

Study model 1/100 (= 1/8″ = 1′-0″ scale) Description: "The building was conceived as a very strict three story house, where each story had its own direct access to the changing terrain levels outside. By moving back the building envelope partly into the side of the steep cliff, the additional height required for an extra story was made possible while keeping the impact minimal.

VILLA ON A SLOPED PLANE - DRAWINGS

note how the plan drawing denotes the part of the ground that is cut (dark poche) - the horizontal cutting plane for the plan drawing is at about 5 feet above floor level; this means the slope of the landscape is cut at that level (the slope in the section drawing allows you to define the exact moment when the land is cut).

in the plan drawing one could continue to show the contour lines in WHITE where the earth is cut.

KARAMUK KUO architects, HOUSE ON A SLOPE, ZOLLIKON / Switzerland

note the plan drawings.....the entry level plan drawing (center image) shows the full hillside in elevation, the level below (left image) shows part of the hill cut, the attic level (right image) does not show the contours lines since it is too far above the ground.

the section shows the condition clearly; note the dotted line for the slope of the hill.

Thomas McBrien, architects: ARCHITECTURE MODEL (embedded in landscape), Cape St. Vincent / Portugal 

https://thomas-mcbrien.com/Cape-St-Vincent

“Located at the end of the Cape St. Vincent peninsula the building is embedded into the existing landscape. The structure is formed of two levels, each offering different views and experiences. The top deck provides a respite following the long walk from the town. From here, one has unobstructed, high-level views of the historic coast line. It is also a perfect place for big-wave viewing. On the lower level, an enclosed garden with surrounding arcade offers a sheltered environment for contemplation and reflection. The journey concludes with a double height main space that offers grand panoramic views over the Atlantic Ocean.”
