Virginia Tech

From Telluric (Earth) To Tectonic (Sky)

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

My graduate thesis is a study of telluric and tectonic architecture. These two ideas inspired me to design a baseball stadium for the town of Blacksburg, Virginia that portrayed the contrasting concepts "of the earth" and "of the sky."
