Abstract
This chain reaction thesis will be created by the necessity of human interaction. It is both an examination of human connection as well as spatial configurations. This will show how human connections are crucial to growth and development as individuals as well as a community. People within small communities or neighborhoods are fully responsible for creating, developing, and maintaining relationships. Personal relationships with others satisfy human interaction needs. It is important to people to have interaction, emotions, relationships, bonds, etc. with others. Through the design of a co-housing community near the cities of Mapleton, Kindred, and Fargo, North Dakota, I hope to show how important community relationships are to those who inhabit. Using a mixed-method research approach, this project will reveal how human interaction and connection play a major part of society’s communities and neighborhoods.
