| dc.description.abstract | This thesis seeks to explore, through making. The object of this making is, as Kahn has said, house. as opposed to a house; or, the house type seen as a generative tool rather than as a singular definitive manifestation of some set of circumstantial needs. The house is the one intellectual model in architecture which can bring to thinking in design a set of questions in which dwelling in its richest sense can be studied. Questions of how dwelling is made more possible through the configurations of architecture without the necessity of introducing artificial symbolic structures which cast the physical, material reality of architectural elements into a secondary level of significance, are raised in this thesis through the making of six house types. The houses are made as a series and are seen as typological structures in which the configuration of possible ways of dwelling are sketched. | en |
