This creative project includes 30 images that were selected from a body of work to present to you The Suburbanessence. This study of the suburban housing concentration in and around Fort Wayne, Indiana, (SMSA), illustrates the emphasis placed on the suburban ethic within this region over the last 75 years. The Fort Wayne area was selected due to the median classification on the list of Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas.The photographic observations of the socioenvironmental application of the suburban ethic is posed to interpret the physical evidence of a chronological growth within these housing tracts, using architectural style classifications as a reference point. The subsequent photographs are not directed to formulate a specific judgment on this type of environment. Photographed over a six month period, several disturbing irregularities are in evidence. Deciding if these irregularities actually exist, or whether an individual's taste just leans in that direction is my challenge.
