A community of parts

This thesis is about the making of places by proposing a community of parts. My vision is to celebrate individual elements while giving a sense of order and a sense of whole.

Connections are shaped by functional and structural concerns. The pieces form a place where the community of building parts is reflective of the community of school.

The search for an architecture whose order is not dominated by simplistic hierarchy, but through the act of layering spaces and the repetition of structure, has been my greatest challenge. I believe a building with structural harmony will help bring a sense of balance to those who use it. / Master of Architecture
