A two-day conference on the benefits of creating urbanity in weak-market cities gathers twenty-one international experts in architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design, as well as planning, policy, finance, economics, and real estate development. Participants share strategies for cities whose urban character has devolved radically due to economic, demographic, and physical change - cities that are now considered "formerly urban."
Architectural Wit: Le Corbusier And The Use Of Visual Analogy And Metaphor, Bruce Abbey
Architectural Wit: Le Corbusier And The Use Of Visual Analogy And Metaphor, Bruce Abbey
School of Architecture - All Scholarship
"The ability to see the world of ideas in visual terms and as a method equivalent to literary poetics distinguishes the work of Le Corbusier from other architects of his generation." A detailed description of his use of visual metaphor and analogy has been difficult to find in the critical literature. This article explains Le Corbusier's use of visual analogy and metaphor.

Excavating Wilderness: A Reorienting Passage Into Central Park, Jeff Kamuda
Excavating Wilderness: A Reorienting Passage Into Central Park, Jeff Kamuda
Architecture Thesis Prep
If we are to understand that dwelling, a function of orientation is an ultimate goal of humankind, and that architecture's primary purpose is to provide this 'existential foothold', how can this be accomplished in an age when the very tools of orientation and it's components (time, place, and identity) be oriented to their surroundings through an increasing detachment from the natural world, how can architecture thus be used as a didactic mechanism ideology, developed through the historical lineage of the wilderness concept, will produce an opportunity for an architectural intervention to confront the primal act of orientation while simulating grafting …

Micro_Casa, Amanda Jones
Micro_Casa, Amanda Jones
Architecture Senior Theses
"Neighborhoods with block after block of monolithic homes, which can be seen as far as the eye can see, are constructed by large conglomerate companies whose goal is to create the largest number of homes in the smallest area in order to achieve the largest amount of profit... The question becomes, what can we learn from this intensive use of space and how can it inform a design project that attempts to intensify use of space in the existing footprint of these communities in an intensification of uses that is informed by the informal relationships that already exist."
Reconnect The Urban Surface --- By Making Landscape And Infrastructure, Ming Gao
Reconnect The Urban Surface --- By Making Landscape And Infrastructure, Ming Gao
Architecture Senior Theses
Today in the post industrial city, the connection between different places relies mostly on transportation by way of automobiles, public buses, and subway. By walking or biking, people are able to talk with nature directly. However, by modern transportation, people are confined in a close machinery space which prevents them from experiencing nature directly. They are separated from nature by consciously choosing to use modern transportation during their daily lives, and they get less and less direct access to nature. Nowadays, nature experienced space within walking distance int he city is limited to the tiny front yard garden, where landscape …

Architecture Of Population Flows | Localizing Tourism In The Inside Passage, Jennifer Tamblin
Architecture Of Population Flows | Localizing Tourism In The Inside Passage, Jennifer Tamblin
Architecture Thesis Prep
"This thesis focuses on a problem that arises due to the specific flows of tourists and migrant workers into the south east Alaskan Inside Passage. Because of these population flows, situations have emerged in the small town communities that create a need for an intervention designed to cater to the specific circumstances surrounding each individual group of people, and how they coexist with one another."

The Architecture Of Resistance: Pivoting The Informal Economy, Michael Langone
The Architecture Of Resistance: Pivoting The Informal Economy, Michael Langone
Architecture Senior Theses
"In the struggle for growth, the architecture of informal commerce is complicit in the perpetuation of an impermanent and uncertain existence that favors acquiescence over resistance. More is required of it.
An architectural intervention can provide pivot points upon which to direct the flow of unregulated commerce and subvert state-sponsored efforts to peripheralize it."
Architecture Cover To Cover [Entry To Exit], Ryan Kowalczyk
Architecture Cover To Cover [Entry To Exit], Ryan Kowalczyk
Architecture Senior Theses
"By making an architecture that offers successive ideas to complete a coherent whole, the true art of architecture can be re-realized."
This Will Kill That: Building Agility / Maneuvering The Inevitable Trasition Between The Present Day Library Of Paper Book And Digital Library Of The Future, Daniel Elmore
Architecture Senior Theses
"When fixed (inflexible) spaces are constructed based on variables, these spaces become outdated and eventually cease to be relevant... in architecture, when the variables that comprise a building change, the building itself needs to be flexible enough to adjust to said change. By creating non-static spaces, we can insure that our buildings are 'in the game' for the longest time possible."
See What I... Controlling Vision Through The Senses, Taylor Wilk
See What I... Controlling Vision Through The Senses, Taylor Wilk
Architecture Senior Theses
"By dismissing the other (non visual) senses we are encouraging a design approach that lacks concern for human, physical, and emotional engagement. We as a society have become numb to emotive involvement - we have become mesmerized by imagery and have forgotten about the capabilities architecture can employ on experience."

Metamorphose, Elijah Yoon
Metamorphose, Elijah Yoon
Architecture Senior Theses
"This thesis will test how Metamorphose Architecture can intensify a multi-program space as it changes over time. Metamorphose Architecture will transform as it responds to the purpose, inhabitation, and structure of changing programs to allow maximum efficiency. This transformation will in turn create changes in the appearance and character of the space."
Invasive Ruins, Carey R. Walker
Invasive Ruins, Carey R. Walker
Architecture Senior Theses
"The purpose of this thesis is to search for a way in which architecture can become a tool used to create a new definition for age-value and historic-value. Instead of proposing an architecture typology that will exist and be admired 'forever', the proposal becomes a suggestion of ruin; to allow the new building language to age over time alongside with its natural site."
Be All You Can Be! Then Two Steps To The Left And Scopic Operations In Military Theatre, Alex Coulombe
Be All You Can Be! Then Two Steps To The Left And Scopic Operations In Military Theatre, Alex Coulombe
Architecture Senior Theses
"The criteria for which I would ask to be evealuated include three essential categories, all relating back to how well i have modified Fort Jay to be a theater within its context. First, I would like to be judged by how well I exploit the latent theatrical opportunities of the site, both on urban and local scales. Second, I would like it to be considered how well the design would function as a performance venue, especially when compared to a conventional design. Finally, I would like my critiquers to judge the theater from a purely experiential standpoint."
[Dis] Lodge: A Transformation Of The Contemporary Ski Lodge In Response To Site And Function, Jacob Schneck
[Dis] Lodge: A Transformation Of The Contemporary Ski Lodge In Response To Site And Function, Jacob Schneck
Architecture Senior Theses
"Through an understanding of the complex functions found in the contemporary ski lodge and their relationship to site, architecture can effectively integrate the multiplicity of functions found in the ski lodge with site, while introducing a contemporary formal language that analogically references the advanced technology of ski equipment."

Architecture, history, and identity in Mexico City
"Even though different pieces of architecture that range from the Ancient to the Contemporary era can be found sharing the same physical space, they have not yet created any source of interaction, causing a lack of understanding in the region. These pieces are the key players to what one sees or identifies as the identity of the pace and by it not having an common thread that linkg them together, it creates a false sense of identity."
Undermining Impasse: The Role Of Architecture In The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Laura Ondrich
Undermining Impasse: The Role Of Architecture In The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Laura Ondrich
Architecture Senior Theses
"The building strategies in the West Bank, culminating in the construction of the separation barrier, are politically aimed at temporary separation, but their built reality is resulting in a continuing and unbalanced coexistence. This investigation seeks to understand the social implications and hostile perceptions arising from these patterns of government-imposed political architecture with the ambition of responding though critical intervention."
Performative Design: Investigating Form In The Natural And Capitalist Environment, John M. Santoro
Performative Design: Investigating Form In The Natural And Capitalist Environment, John M. Santoro
Architecture Senior Theses
"Rethinking the design process from conception and allowing natural forces, such as wind, solar exposure, and rainfall to drive the initial design will generate a structurally and environmentally efficient form."
Campus [Re]Connected: Research, Housing, And Recreation Campus In The Pristine Northern Woods Of Wisconsin, David A. Franknecht Jr.
Campus [Re]Connected: Research, Housing, And Recreation Campus In The Pristine Northern Woods Of Wisconsin, David A. Franknecht Jr.
Architecture Senior Theses
"People are becoming more and more removed from the natural world through the development of modern technologies and lifestyles... Reconnecting people with the natural environment will enable a realization of our reliance on the natural environment and its success in the future. Campus design and landscape architecture can come together to interpret the way we interact with the environment and further this connection in a positive way."
Didactic Architecture: A Tectonic Response, Elizabeth Kankainen
Didactic Architecture: A Tectonic Response, Elizabeth Kankainen
Architecture Senior Theses
"Using the tectonic nature of architecture as the vehicle, architecture can educate its users of material life cycles., Through revealing particular stages of production by exposing, exaggerating and juxtaposing the connections between materials, the physical process of a buildings formation can be understood, along with architecture's inherent connection to nature."
On The Tracks: Design Strategies For Urban Shrinkage, Holli L. Janoski
On The Tracks: Design Strategies For Urban Shrinkage, Holli L. Janoski
Architecture Senior Theses
"Architecture has the capacity to assist the post-industrial city and support smart decline through the design of a low maintenance recreational network that adapts vacant space and excess infrastructure for public use. This network is composed of a series of interventions that capitalize on existing landscape conditions and material availability while promoting inter-connectivity, cross-connectivity, and activity."
