A Border Crossing Station, Brownsville, Texas, Steven Quevedo

School of Architecture Theses - Archive

The increasing influx of Latin Americans into the Southwest United States as a result of social, political and economic upheaval in their homelands is a growing concern for the state of Texas.

Serving simultaneously both as an administrative and educational facility, this place of entry into the United States would serve to enhance the immigrant's arrival and adaptation to their new world. The complex would represent the freedoms provided by the Constitution, serving symbolically as a haven …

A Sensory Garden For The Dallas Arboretum, Betty Bornefeld Presnall

Landscape Architecture Masters & Design Theses - Archive

Design is most often carried out as an aesthetic exercise in visual affect and spatial treatment. If more stimulation of other human senses (orienting, auditory, smell / taste, visual, and haptic) were to occur in a place, perhaps the place would become more meaningful and memorable. In an effort to address this hypothesis, a Sensory Garden was designed, and hopefully will be implemented. As far as can be determined no other gardens in the United States exist which were designed explicitly to stimulate all the senses. There is a Fragrance Garden at the Strybing Arboretum at Golden Gate Park in …
