Dichotomy of Wall and Dwelling: Four Pavilions and a Tower, A Dwelling in Etlan, Va

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This project focuses on the wall as a cross-axis form, one which gives an order to the landscape and a reference for the rest of the building to be set against. The intersections of these walls produce four corners housing four pavilions for dwelling. As the walls extend over the landscape, it culminates with a tower, a dwelling space for a guest, overlooking the surrounding landscape.
