Abstract
This thesis has been set up according to the following premises. The project has been initiated by a wealthy benefactor through the M.C. Escher Foundation, Haags Gemeentemuseum, The Hague, Netherlands. In recognition of his appreciation for the delight and inspiration which Escher has given him, this benefactor has agreed to fund a project, the intent of which is to: 1. Gain insight into M.C. Escher's character and art works. 2. Using the three hundred block of the Eighth Avenue Mall in Calgary, Alberta, redesign the mall based on the analysis of M.C. Escher's character and art works. The design should be considered an opportunity to create an "architectural playground."
