    Dialogues with Nature: A Study on Nature as a Precedent for Form and Meaning in Architecture
    Murray, Kirsten Ring (Virginia Tech, 2024-11-22)
    The following research project examines the use of nature as a precedent for form and order in architecture. Includes a critical history of different beliefs and philosophies evident in Western thought. These principles are explored through the design of a complex of buildings and site interventions designed to promote a heightened sense of awareness of the natural surroundings, and to stimulate reflection on the relationship of the individual to nature and to the larger social collective.
