SPACE AND ITS COMPOSITION OF CRAIG ELLWOOD'S RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS FOCUSING ON MATERIAL AND MODULAR SYSTEM

This paper is an investigation, the type and its transformation of spatial composition in Craig Ellwood's residential buildings focusing on material and modular system. Analysis deals with 28 works and structure, primary exterior finishing materials, primary interior finishing materials, modular system on both plan and section. As a result of this analysis, following points are derived; In the 1950s, when standardization of construction lead to uniform spaces, Ellwood countered this trend by spatially arranging materials with texture in one modular system and controlling them with the exposed beams. Through this, he created an architecture that gave rhythm to space. In the 1960s, Ellwood used various column spans, defining the appearance of buildings by exposing beams and columns on the outside, making for compositions that gave rhythm to the outside.
