a building within a building

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

It is my proposal that unused building shells of the past serve as cocoons for the future, providing the precedence from which grows "a building within a building". The tension created between old and new encourages a didactic relationship between building and city, cognizant of the past while looking towards the future.
