According to Freidman, the function of each architectural
space is determined by the equipment which is specific for that space.
Fig 1.1 demonstrates a linkage scheme graph. The functional spaces are represented as points while the links are the paths linking these spaces. While Fig 1.2 turns Fig 1.1 into a topological figure, hence starting to give the building a form.
From Freidman's theories, the form is to be manipulated firstly and then depending on the equipment required the inside can be manipulated to fit inside and fulfil the users needs. The sculptural form of my building is a 'monomorph'. (see Fig 1.3) Freidman also discusses how the inside and outside of the building are independent hence I can create my building form first.
