Porche Plan above: I used black ink-Rapidograph pen to fill in the walls; and pencils to express the enclosures -from dark tones to midtone greys to white.
Section-One above shows a cross-section of a Bedroom space flanked by two courtyards; with the doors to the bathroom in Elevation.
Section-Two above shows a cross-section of the Dining space and its adjoining part of the arcade in Section. The profile of the front entance is in Elevation. The darkened door to the right is a corridor running through the entertaining areas-Living, Kitchen and Dining.Parti Drawings of Can Feliz
The First Parti highlights the Corridor running through the body of the Villa-it is the Central circulation system-a fast means of conveyance.
The Second Parti shows the series of Matrixes in the entertainment quarters, central to the Villa, strung together by the Corridor. These provide a meandering path, interconnecting the three spaces, and heightening social interaction.
The Third Parti focuses on the Central part of Can Feliz. This parti explores the relationship between the Entertainment spaces and the Courtyard. Allthough the courtyard has no walls, it forms natural boundaries given by the different levels and orientation of vegetation.
The four Matrixes reveal a thrust and tendacy of the Building to lure its occupants towards the Centre, hence portraying Utzons' value of a more healthy interactive lifestlye in the sun. The bottom Matrix then connects the spaces into a continous loop, encouraging a return indoors.
