Professor: Mark Dekay
Team: Zachary Dulin
Over the course of 3 days, a team of 7 travelled to Alvar Aalto’s Villa Kokkenen in Järvenpää, Finland. Every detail (interior and exterior) of the villa, sauna, and site were measured and triangulated using traditional water level tubes, meter sticks, and string. From these measurements, multiple hand drawings and a model were produced which include site, plan with furniture, elevation, and section. More than 2,000 points were recorded on the site alone with all 200 plus trees and a full interior drawn and modelled accurately.
Both the drawings and model are displayed in the Villa Kokkonen Musuem.
