Abstract
The intention of this paper is to make a thematic explication of the way of realizing an integrity of inseparable elements in the House. The analysis of the form in the Morris House by Kahn will be in two parts : Part 1 illustrates the modifications of form over the three versions, that is the units system A, the units system B and three-parts system. Part 2 analyzes the meaning of the process of form modification in three ontological aspects. The meaning of the Form of the Morris House is analyzed through three diagrams derived from Kahn's sketches.
