    Ashfield Lake, Massachusetts : a pavilion, a beach and some cottages
    (Montana State University - Bozeman, 1982) Holm, Christopher Everett
    This architectural project deals with a lakefront development in Ashfield, Massachusetts. The situation is real in the sense that this place has and still does exist, however this project is hypothetical and being used strictly for the educational purposes of a student of architecture. The architectural components of this project include a pavilion, a beach, some cottages, and the site development of this place. This is a situation where the seasonal and year round facilities coexist along a lakefront in a traditional New England village. It is as though this place has the identities of both the village and the lakefront, and the architecture must link these two sets of existing conditions to present an appropriate totality in the landscape.

    The Waterline : resort hotel and boardsailing center
    (Montana State University - Bozeman, 1986) Jaffe, Richard; Chairperson, Graduate Committee: Elmira S. Smyrl
    My thesis project is to design a resort hotel and boardsailing center in the city of Hood River, Oregon, the center of a region thought by many people to be the best place in North America to pursue this new and exciting form of recreation. I want to approach this project as if it were a real one, resulting in a schematic design solution which would be of interest to a developer of such projects. My goals for the design are to make it appropriate, functional, and aesthetically engaging. First, my design solution should be appropriate to the locale in which it is located and to the user group for which it is intended. Second, my design should be functional as a resort hotel, accommodating the various activities typically required in this type of project along with activities unique to its intended clientele. Third, my design should be aesthetically engaging to all who would come in contact with it, whether spending time as a guest or only passing by in a car. The activity in Hood River related to boardsailing is growing rapidly, and with it a new image and reputation. This project should add to that image and reputation as a landmark to this revitalization of the community by demonstrating an aesthetic connection to both the region and the new activity of boardsailing.

    Langkawi Vacation Village, Malaysia
    (Montana State University - Bozeman, 1987) Mansor, Wan Marzura; Chairperson, Graduate Committee: Jerry A. Bancroft
    My thesis project is to design a Malay Vacation Village on the island of Beras Basah, Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia. This resort would be different from any other because guests would be experiencing a unique atmosphere and environment, a situation where they can encounter Malay culture first hand, while at the same time enjoying all the comforts of a modern vacation resort.

    Manhattan landing aquarium and waterfront park
    (Montana State University - Bozeman, 1987) Ficke, Dawn E.; Chairperson, Graduate Committee: Ralph Johnson
    One of New Yorks' greatest assets is its' extensive waterfront. For my thesis project I am designing an Aquarium and a waterfront park concept for Lower Manhattan. The site that I have chosen is located on the waterfront, between the Battery Park (to the south), and the South Street Seaport (to the north). Developing the waterfront between Battery Park and the South Street Seaport provides a unique opportunity to exploit the waterfront for the public's enjoyment. The proposed aquarium would open the waterfront up to the public, and it would act as a catalyst for the area. The aquarium and park would function as a connection between the downtown core and the waterfront, and the South Street Seaport and Battery Park. The future of New York will be enhanced with this project ( as well as ensuring the growth and the popularity of Lower Manhattan ) by improving the variety and quality of attractions to the city while retaining the surrounding area's integrity. The horizons for the future will be expanded while the problems of today are responded to. To justify the use of such a prominent and influential site, a high level of performance must be required of the development. The goals will be clearly stated and responded to. The visual and the physical corridors and the need for public accessibility are major factors that the form of the development will have to take into consideration. Other considerations that will be addressed in the project are: the existing dominant open spaces, the existing pedestrian and vehicular patterns, and the continuity of the city through selectively relating to surrounding building heights and bulk placement.
