Within this project, my studio was tasked with designing a field house on an existing site, using topographical manipulation, with the goal of housing donkey basketball. In addition to this criteria, my project aims to explore what I argue is the symbiotic relationship between landscaping and architectural elements, in which landscaping can be used to shape the form of and experiences within spaces. At the site scale, the use of landscaping elements guides the movement of people into the field house’s spaces. The existing trees act as natural buffers between the property and surrounding environment. The space between the trees act as windows.The flowering shrubs behave as fences, guiding ones path up from the river to the field house. These curated moments aim to showcase the powerful experiential relationship between landscape and architecture.
