This is a student project by Benjamin DeLamatre for ARCH 202 in Autumn 2010.
The restrictions we had during the bath house was that we had a formula and depending on our first letter of our first name we had to make the bath house seem either level with the ground, under the ground, or above the ground. My restriction was I had to at least have it above the ground. The concept behind my bath house would be passage/kinetics/circulation. The bath house is placed on a river. The first passage I established in the bath house would be the passage of the river through the house. When entering the house you enter at a more private area then it opens up to a more public area. You can then either take the twisting pathways and stairs throughout the building or go through the indirectly lit lower level. I also wanted the building to be circulatory looking so everything is connected.
This work is a part of the online collections of the Knowlton School of Architecture Student Archives, The Ohio State University. It is part of an effort to make accessible student work ranging from the first student that graduated from the program in 1903 to the present. The effort to preserve and digitize drawings in the Student Archives was sponsored in part by the Graham Foundation.
