Abstract
This thesis explores structure as a visual and literal framework for a building. The relationships or connections of discreet pieces to the framework, whether on the scale of a handrail or the brick cylinder is the basic structure of the project. The structural grid establishes an order. It defines the boundaries of the house. The enclosure and spaces within the grid of columns and beams can then respond to other temporal considerations.
