Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to develop an alternate process of architectural design based on a variety of schemes which respond to different aspects of any given project and site. The major focus of each exploration is the influence of pedestrian access on the building form. After the investigations are compiled a final projection will be synthesized as an assemblage of the strengths of each exploration. This method should enable the project to contain more than a strong design decision.
