Re Presenting Water

Abstract

The following thesis is an exploration into the influences that water has on the urban landscape and architecture. This project consists of three buildings that are connected to water. This water flows differently at each site; one is constantly churning, another is highly controlled, and the last is no longer there but it once was slow and steady. In each instance the landscape and the architecture are reactive to the water and as a whole the project re-presents the origins of the city.
