Abstract
This thesis begins with the observation that urban forms are more than a simple sum of individual buildings. A way of knowing and working with an . architecture of the city is through its spatial pattern. The spatial patterns of modem cities are to a large extent impacted by systems -organized systems of circulation for cars and people, as well as ownership. This thesis attempts to explore an architectural-urban design through a method designing overlapping systems that respond to the site.
