Graphic Expression of the Transformability of Domestic Space. From Le Corbusier to Andrés Jaque: A Real and Symbolic Evolution
Coinciding with the centenary of the opening of Staatliches Bauhaus in Weimar, our aim was to succinctly analyse how the appearance of the concept of the rational home of the Modern Movement, which was derived from the Bauhaus, gave rise to the first examples of transformable domestic space. From this first stage we describe the contributions of Le Corbusier in the Weißenhofsiedlung in 1927, Gerrit Rietveld in the Rietveld Schroder House in the same year, and Pierre Chareau in the Maison du Verre in 1932. The simultaneous analysis of the interior mobility elements and their graphic expression, brings us to a second more modern stage, in which both, the elements related to the flexible configuration of domestic space, and the graphic media the architects use, are somewhat more ambitious. For this we describe the work of Rem Koolhaas and the spanish architects Iñaki Carnicero, Vicente Guallart and Andrés Jaque. We thus highlight the real and interesting evolution in the means, and symbolically in their graphic expression, of this essential value in the concept of the modern home, which is part of the contemporary pattern of family unity, and is characterized by the redefinition of the boundaries between the different ways of inhabiting private and public spaces.
