ZEBRA or GREY HORSE [HOUSE]

As I have said I re-studied the plans and found that there is a recursive hierarchy of the spaces on the upper floor whereas a strong central axis dominates the lower level and split the whole space into two major parts.

I also studied the Villa Muller by Adolf Loos and was inspired by his distinctive hierarchy among the architecture of the rooms and the architecture of displacement/stairs/circulation, but contradictory between the two. His spatial arrangement was based on function/program, which is not something that I would like to go into, but I do need some clue/system that directs the way I arrange the spaces.

I tried to make a transitional floor that disrupts the symmetry of the lower floor as well as the hierarchy in size on the upper floor, but SH made a comment that it is too solid as opposed to the transparency that we are asked to achieve. He pointed out that the right thing to do is to come up with a floor with transparency (ref. Colin Rowe), which is referential to both floor as a zebra to a black and a white horse rather than a grey one ( I love this analogy a lot!). The intermediate floor should be able to be interpreted in both ways!

Now the key thing is to play out the 3-D arrangement of the floors (maybe the answer to a planar puzzle lies within sections? ), which is totally arbitrary and I am not comfortable doing without any reference. What would the reference be then?

The stairs? It seems that so far I have placed all the floor planes onto the circulation path that I created from the plan, which is subjected to change (study more about the possibility of stairs and their relationships to the rooms!) Also note that the circulation is possibly very long due to the fact that the plans are not compatible.

Or try to elucidate the key feature of both floors, the apply its genetics to the intermediate level, and then combine it two the parents in the way that's only logical.

So, for the upper level, Plan A, rooms are of a discursive hierarchy, size-wise, and also symmetrical along the central horizontal axis; the circulation is invasive and curly in the end.
For the lower level, Plan A, strictly symmetrical along the central vertical axis; circulation is in the center and on both sides towards the center.

Therefore, the intermediate plan should be symmetrical in both ways (point symmetry) and have one pair has discursive spaces. There should be a central circulation goes in and two on the sides. But how to arrange them in the third dimension? Complementary to the circulation planes?

Note that I should make the 3D arrangement in a way that could make two radically different interpretations, as transparency dictates. Also note that the circulation should be properly planned out.
