Defining an edge: a wall for the street

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The thesis of this project focuses on the defining of an edge of the university; thereby denoting a limit as to how far the university can extend. The wall is proposed to define that edge. The tower is a result of a visual dialogue between the wall and the light well that cuts through it.
