The wall building is a third-year studio project, which explores the development of collage as a means for design. The collage is used to create intentional and unintentional readings that would never have been discovered otherwise. These readings can then be applied to architecture to create space, facade, plan, circulation, structure and so on.

The building was developed without a specified program. This was done in order to focus on the concepts of design and partis rather than programmatic diagrams. Instead, certain building elements were required, including a poche condition, mechanical door system, a transition from solid to frame, structural detailing, reflecting pool, and an additive condition.
