Architecture of confluence

Abstract

We live in a culture where physical and mental boundaries have created a physical and spiritual detachment from nature and a fragmented society. Placing boundaries in the physical and psychological landscape has led to a progressive veiling of our ability to perceive our interconnectedness with each other and nature. It is my intention to explore the possibility for architecture to act as a catalyst which creates experiences that encourage connectedness rather than creating further boundaries in our landscapes and the human psyche.
