Includes bibliographical references (p. 125).
This thesis begins as a recording of existing "markings" found on the Massachusetts Cape Cod landscape. The term markings is used throughout to mean: a natural occurrence to the landscape or in human behavior related to the landscape which records a moment in time and space. The design of a summer sheltered place in Truro, Cape Cod is based upon the process implied in my use of the term markings. The second piece of this exploration is the journey from image to building. The creation of the sheltered place was designed to allow for inhabiting the land without destroying it. This thesis project is a physical and visual recording of that journey.
