Brewing Up a Community
View/ Open
Abstract
This thesis begins to answer the question: through design how can different zoning types, such as
commercial and industrial, be built to create a hybrid structure that would complement each zoning type? The Typology used for the examination of this problem is a 30,000 square foot Destination Brewpub. The Theoretical Premise/Unifying Idea that will guide the research is: “Approaching an integrated design with a holistic view draws upon multiple influences that,
when combined, create new design opportunities and solutions.” The Project Justification is: With increasing industries, mixed-use buildings provide new jobs and
products. These buildings must be looked at in a holistic sense in order to integrate them into the community. The site for the project is located in Fargo, North Dakota.
