C A ' O N N E L A Sketching process: the sketching process combined scientific analysis of the site and context, collaboration techniques with the client and the planning officials of the municipality, simulation of the users needs and wishes as well as traditional architectural tools like freehand sketching, modelmaking and perspective studies. The basic approach was to first take into account the place (natural landscape, ground conditions, ect.), then the users and their dreams and finally the architectural intentions and impact of good housing design. |

Ca'Onnela / site Concept for the site in Kangasala. On the left is a sandridge from the last Iceage and on the right a deep freshwater lake. The narrow lot already has an excisting building (olemassa oleva asuinrakennus), which is right on the edge of a main road to the center of the village. The solar cycle (north is towards the top of the image), views to the lake and optimal use of space between buildings as well as the proper housing design criteria presented a very complex planning situation, which was eventually solved through physical modelmaking. |
