A Tectonic Study of Form: The Design of a Bayside Market

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate a design process through the creation of an architectural form as a composition of elements, material focus and locality. The desire to work with a singular material drove the project from the study of early wood working techniques to the creation of a marketplace defined by its appreciation for tectonics and the history of the local region.
