| dc.description.abstract | This written thesis is prepared as a supplement to the design
or graphic thesis which was completed this semester in Architecture
461. It is an extension of the written work which was begun with the
program done in Architecture 422 in the fall semester. The intent in
this composition is to further elaborate on the problems that were
posed in the first part of the written material, show how these
problems were solved, make any revisions or additions that are
necessary to the program, explain the analysis and development which
went into solving the problems in the design thesis, and finally to
make a written presentation which will more fully explain the ideas,
investigation, research, and criteria which went into the final
design. This written thesis will also define the stages of development
which occurred in the design and give some insight into the
evolution of the design, revisions that were made and the elements
which make up the final solution.
The clearest method of presentation for the above ideas is to
fir s t present the points about the problem which did not change in
any gr eat respect and then trace the evolution of the design through
four sections which correspond to the four preliminary presentations
which we made throughout the semester. The following thesis will
follow this general pattern. | |
