Abstract

I approached the design of my thesis project in three different degrees of contextualism:The first degree of contextualism deals with the analysis and community development of the urban context.The second section addresses the site context and how to strenghten its identity as a "place".The final section is an exploration into spatial and metaphorical readings of a contained context within a building.
