dc.description.abstractThe performative requirements of contemporary buildings often eclipse their potential for a formal, elemental beauty. This thesis places a primacy on the element of walls as a means to study fabrication and fragments that unfurl into a folly at Heritage Park. The act of making simultaneously tests a constructive idea and imbues it with a physical presence. Embodied within the forthcoming fragments are ideas and questions that resisted the enclosure of intentionality. As the consequences of their presence unfolded, a space emerged. This proposition offers but one interpretation of the architectural fragments - take from each what you will.en
