3rd Year Hospice

California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo

The intent of this project is to study the effects of architecture on a dying patient by expressing energy in a form that speaks to a Hospice as a place to live instead of a place to die. This was accomplished through the use of separating structure and skin, pentrating volumes, and relating the skeletal strucutre and skin to the human body.

The project was studied through the exclusive use of models to design and drawings done after the initial design phase.
