Architecture can be significant in defining a particular place. While architecture typically offers basic shelter, its value and contributions to culture lie beyond these basic needs. The thesis proposes that by specific framing of a scenery, a view of the city can be a contribution which inspires a Precious View. / 10 / A Precious View in this case is not only about the image that we see but also the scent we smell, the sound we hear, or the wind we feel. Not only what we see matters, but all senses contribute to that what we call experience.
This thesis explores ways to offer a Precious View by framing the skyline of Midtown New York.
