Nature's Manifestation: How Architecture Can Entice Exploration of the American LandscapeFox, Adam James 04 April 2019 (has links)
Thesis
Design inspires simplified understandings of complex phenomenon and manifests, through spatial experiences, external loci for exploration of the natural world.
Assertion
While the early Americans utilized "Manifest Destiny" for their own conquests, the manifestation of these architectural elements alludes to the buildings propensity to instill a sense of wonder in the observer. This building strives to present a new Manifest Destiny, where there is not an indomitable expansion of land but rather the expansion of what many Americans know of the American landscape. Four regional interpretations of the exterior landscape develop a similar vernacular for a populace that resides in the built environment more than they do outdoors, per an NHAPS study. (Klepeis, Nelson, Ott, Robinson, Tsang, and Switzer, 2001) Ultimately, the museum will present a reasonable facsimile of the natural landscape and inspire the public's exploration into the American landscape.
Research for this thesis stems from my personal exploration and experiences while traveling across America. Reasonable facsimiles of the landscape developed from the quintessence of each regions overall gesture, my interpretation of what I experienced through my travels, and my ethereal perception. The thesis of each region has a hierarchy of primary, secondary, and tertiary ideals that have inspired the design, from east to west:
Appalachian - Passage, Barrier, Sliding
Plains - Vast, Horizon, Fluid
Grand Canyon (Canyons) - Erosion, Depth, Vertical
Redwoods - Solitude of Silence, Solitude of Isolation, Massive
A theoretical investigation of the spatial quality of this museum yields a juxtaposition between perception and affordance. Affordance is a term that James J. Gibson coined that denotes the ability of an environment to be utilized differently through a multitude of dimensions including time (as age or time of day), need (present to the person at that moment), and ability (physical). Affordance defines the static nature of the environment and the observer's requirements and the environment's ultimate fulfillment of those needs (Gibson, 1987). This is to demonstrate that a person experiences space differently and specifically to themselves according to their needs.
To present a building that is of my own experiences, while diluted to its pure elements, is not demonstrative of the actual experience. It is something that can never be captured, the phenomenology of the landscape and how someone may feel in that space. Thus, leading to my thesis exploration, having the observer delve into spaces, experiences, and feelings set forth in the project. Then, inspiring the observer to explore the natural phenomenon of the American landscape.

Urbanisticko – architektonická studie areálu pro šetrný turismus Strachotín / Urban and architectural study of environmentally friendly tourist area Strachotín.Malůšek, Jan Unknown Date (has links)
ANNOTATION On the banks of the Střední Novomlýnská reservoir, in the cadastre of the municipality of Strachotín, the diploma thesis presents the overall design of a multifunctional complex, based on a sensitive connection between organic farming, well-breeding, and eco-tourism. The proposal shows the concept of farming in a "closed circle", with regard to the environment. The urban solution deals with the selected land with an area of 20 ha. The architectural part closely introduces the system of objects, creating a new landscape, perceived by both a human and bird's eye perspective. The layout solution analyzes in detail the functional arrangement of the farm, trying to meet all the requirements for efficient management while maintaining the organic regime and the coexistence of visitors and employees. The complex also offers a restaurant, multifunctional hall, conference rooms, classrooms, workshops, a gym, and exhibition areas. Accommodation is provided by a system of separate buildings, presenting the current possibilities of natural construction and environmentally friendly technologies to the guests, while maintaining the comfort of living. The farm is fully equipped for weddings or corporate events. The design and material solution use a maximum of natural materials in combination with current technologies. In addition to designing a viable multifunctional unit, the aim of the thesis is also to bring added value to the region, by holding annual cultural events and regular activities for children and seniors from the surrounding municipalities. At the same time, the work aims to create a sensitive counterpoint to current tourist destinations in the area.
