| dc.description.abstract | This thesis documents the academic year progress of researching building in the Arctic circle, household material study in garments, building facade materials, and Arctic experiences with northern lights. This thesis is has many iterations and direction of study from chip board massing models to sewing fabrics to see their integrity. This document shows both design iterations and reflection of each work. The final project of this document is a design proposal for 'The Arctic Experience' - a full service experience for tourists to have a place to visit the arctic circle and view the northern lights. From the provided transportation to their stay in the building, and back they will get to experience the arctic. | en |
| dc.description.abstractgeneral | This document contains thesis iterations and research from the fall and spring academic semesters. The fall semester was research and material study heavy, while the spring semester's project development lead to project design iterations. The fall was spent researching the arctic circle, building construction in that zone, and the aurora Borealis. Then there was a brief shift in ideas - moving toward material study and garment architecture - taking household items and seeing how they can be re-formed. By the end of the thesis, material on building facades was studied and then later a development for the arctic was proposed. | en |
