The different treatment of the space enclosures shown in the relationship between the column, the non load bearing walls of kitchen and utilities rooms and the bedroom walls expresses the different mood of the two areas - contemplative for the individual and extroverted for the common rooms.

Looking at the plan one can notice the distinction between individual bedrooms as a series of equal sized cells and the common rooms following a more open spatial scheme. The space enclosure which defines the individual cells is load bearing - corresponding to the rigid and repetitive shape of the cells. Contrary to that are the walls of the spatial elements in the common area non load bearing. A column in the center of the area supports the building.
