The objectives of this project were to discover spatial qualites while maintaining a boundry. Boundries of Earth, Sky, Water and Society. Relationship were discovered throught the continuities of ‘Spatial Edges’ that were provided by the previous ele-ments.

The individual unit was concentrated on to achieve a desired quality. In this instance the goal was to creat a gradient of light quality by manipulating the operative louvers. The project progressed to provide a pavillion type space for the manipula-tive use of the occupant. From there the pavilion was developed into a dwelling. This final iteration was to ecompass the in-teraction of all four of the previous stated elements.

ARCHETYPES. TYPOLOGY. PRECEDENT.

A concentration in the hybridization of architectural archetypes including the door, wall, window, column and stair. To design a space that embodies the way of life of the Benedictine Monks of Subiaco Monastery. Calling for the addition of a library to house manusripts, a library, and a private chapel. Stitching the new spaces to the existing cloister was accomplished through the design of a meditative vegitable and flower garden. Acting as the muse, an exisitng limestone retaining wall was used as the spine of transition in which a monk would weave their way down the side of the hill. The key space was the chapel that seemingly floats over a meditation pool, overlooking the cemetary were accomplished monks have been laid to rest.

DWELL. WORK. PLAY.

To design a place for all three may become a daunting task when you are looking at a small scall urban project. The designer is one that chose a career so that they could contiually use and develope their art: a space where they could continually juxtapose their design with their mind. FUNCTIONAL ART. In order to make the goal become reality the designer/occupant chose for the entire site to become a space for showing how art and function can combine to become one.An expirement in threshold, spatial transgression, and questioning conventional assumptions of that link public/private and interior/exterior.

MANIFEST. MANIPULATE. MEDIATE.

This series of models shows how one can speculatively explore the opportunities for building materials, building systems and construction technologies to inform decisions of form and space. Understandings developed through this study include a deeper awareness of the physical criteria of buildings (relationship between structure and envelope, envelope and context, and between these and the form and use of adjacent space), and exploring the role of structure in generating architectural space and form.

Models represent manipulated steel and concreted structures.
