I have learnt the historically oldest form of a plan from 6000 BC till 2001. I see the transformation of a plan from a baby lonian plan, till 13th century when they give a proper measurement for a plan and eventually move on to a more design and innovative ideas for a plan like The architectural Alphabet by Johann David Steugruber, 1773.
Notes on Plan
Plan: from Latin planus: flat, level, also: clear intelligible
1. Wall painting from Catal Huyuk painting c. 6000BC
It is a landscape, a pattern in the habitation
- Baby lonian plans, calculation the amount of bricks needs, doorways, the free space
- The garden of the high official of amenhotep
- Writing board with an architectural drawing
- No drawing in Early Greek
2. Plan of St. Gall: the only surviving drawing from 700 years period between Roman Empire and the 13th century
- It is the role and function of the drawing to give buildings and part of the building a suitable layout; an exact proportion, a proper or granulation, a harmonious plan, such that an entire form of construction if born fully within the drawing itself.
3. The architectural Alphabet by Johann David Steugruber, 1773
- He uses letters to make a space (For example, A.B.C)
- Interesting plan
4. Michelangelo’s plan draws the real church+ Buddhist mandala
- Plan does lies!
5. Nicholas Ledouz, Oikema 1804
6. Edward Robbius
- He interviews many architecture
- “Plan presents view of a horizontal slice of the design above and can represent the pattern and dimensional relationship of a floor or ground plan.”
7. Frank Lloyd Wright, Usoman house
8. Le Corbusier “When I do a plan, I am doing a graphic in two dimension but I am actually seeing the space.”
9. Mies van de Rohe, plan for a brick house 1923
10. Daniel Libesknd Jewish Museum 2001
