Tectonics: Watchtower (Fall 2016)

The first tectonics project of the semester called for the use of wood light frame construction to design a small watchtower within the assignment guidelines. The final product follows the established principles of this type of construction, while exploring the possibilities of wood light frame in areas such as the second floor cantilevers and the c-shape of the first floor, which is designed to contain only a staircase.
