This thesis is has many iterations and direction of study from chip board massing models to sewing fabrics to see their integrity. This document shows both design iterations and reflection of each work. The final project of this document is a design proposal for 'The Arctic Experience' - a full service experience for tourists to have a place to visit the arctic circle and view the northern lights.
