a way to see the world

The project, which has been presented to us by Professor Luis E. Carranza Phd., Roger Williams University, is an architectural investigation. This is an investigation into making people, rather, us think of our surroundings. An architecture which wakes us from our blase attitude to force us to realise we have been asleep. Only on the rare occasion do we recall how it is we came to be in the very room we now sit. This is an attempt to wake a campus from such a slumber.

This investigation begins with art in the form of a Juan Gris painting.

studying the map


so I have been analysing the site through the form of a "drawdel" (a model and drawing in one). what interests me the most though is the ground plane thought of as a datum. the ground, to me, has become nothing more than a line in the sand. things pass through the barrier and dwell beneath but all forms collect around it. pipes under; buildings they supply, between or above.
