Delight in Architecture
View/ Open
Abstract
This project explores delight in buildings and how we experience them. It states that the personality of a building as exhibited in individual traits is what we find delight in, as humans tend to personify things they interact with. It further argues that through the complexity of traits and their interactions there is the potential for continued discovery and delight. The project is located in Chicago, Illinois and will be a transit hub including an ‘L’ stop, commuter rail terminus and a high speed intercity rail system.
