Diagrammatic Transformation of Architectural Space

Insulation
My spatial diagrams portray:
- 'Cuts' and 'divisions' of the floor, wall and roof.
- A contrast between the wall cavity in a State house and the wall cavity in a modified sustainable version of the house.
- Removed walls in places, showing the laminated beams (either exposed or hidden) to support the ceiling.
- Extension, replacements, and relocation of walls to create more space and make the most of efficiently using the sun.
- Sustainable insulation and materials used.


Original state housing wall cavity: Gib board, wall timber framing (as shown above), exterior cladding.



Insulated Floor Cross Section: Carpet (or floor boards could be placed directly above the timber framing),  particle board,  polystyrene (insulation), floor timber framing (as shown above).





Insulated Wall Cross Section: Gib board, wall timber framing (as shown above), 'Green Stuff' (insulation), building paper, exterior cladding.





Insulated Ceiling Cross Section: Exposed laminated beam (used for support), gib board, ceiling timber framing (as shown above), 'Green Stuff' (insulation).
