Cube City is a large installation comprised of neighbourhoods of formal-spatial constructions exploring combinations of tectonic and stereotomic strategies of model making.

CASE STUDY
CASE STUDY continuces to investigate tectonic and stereotomic modes of delineating form and space through study of an exemplary arry of building precednts. My precedent house is the Martin House by Frank Lloyd Wright, and I examine the house to assess its spatial and formal elements in relation to the conceptual strategy taken in the design.
