This effort is comprised of three interwoven tasks:
Decipher an evolving urban place, across a range of scales, to establish an informed point of departure for proposing a change.
Attend to the particular imperative purpose of accommodating those among us who are most at risk, and who make their way through life without adequate resources.
Design an individual cumulative form wherein the new architecture incorporates a rejuvenated existing structure, and the entire ensemble contributes something worthwhile to the neighborhood. / Master of Architecture / This is an attempt to understand one street corner, think about how architecture can assist people who really need help, and design a building which asserts its identity even as it fits into its surroundings.
It's one approach to making individual, incremental changes that can accumulate to our collective benefit as we carry on with the transformation of our city.
