Abstract

Mies used Wirling Squares to make the plan of House with Three Courts. Was it applied from the beginning of the design process, or not? From the analysis of the plans in the process it is found that Wirling Squares is not used at all in the halfway plans, but there are two kinds of square systems that are very similar to Wirling Squares. So it seems that Wirling Squares is not applied from the beginning and it is derived from the two square systems in the halfway plans.
