Abstract
dc:description.abstractI focused my thesis on making an architecture of translucency and transparency that creates a veil between the interior and exterior environment. It has a presence while remaining permeable. I feel that the form of the architecture should not stand out, but should function as a framework for enhancing the surrounding environment which is the most attractive exhibition. I chose a winery to be my project to fulfill this idea. Wineries are the places where people enjoy the vineyard, and get away from the city. Also, a winery is unlike other types of buildings that have a simple function. When you go to a winery, you don't just go to taste wine. You go for the whole experience. From the moment you arrive at the site, you see the grapes and begin to see the process of how wine is made. When you go inside, you see the machinery and the barrels, and finally you taste the wine. So the design of the winery goes beyond being just a room to taste wine in. It tells a story.
