This practicum’s design builds on the Assiniboine River as a natural attractor and encourages people to spend more time outside. Relationships of architectural inside and outside are investigated and strategies to connect inside and outside are identified and applied in analysis of directly experienced projects.

The design vocabulary and strategies are adapted to the quality of each site and support movement between the city and the river in all seasons. 2010-09-03T18:24:16Z 2010-09-03T18:24:16Z 2010-09-03T18:24:16Z http://hdl.handle.net/1993/4095 en_US
