A Constant Element of Architecture: A Path Through the Puget Sound

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This thesis explores the design of a constant element of architecture over a changing landscape, and the moments created along the way. This exploration takes the form of a bridge and series of towers that travel 50 miles from Seattle, WA to the edge of the Puget Sound, Protection island. It is a pilgrimage, a journey, a structure situated within a suspended time and space.
