Description
Summary:Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1985. === MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH. === Includes bibliographies. === This thesis will provide an analysis of formal qualities of space from three perspectives; from the interior, from the boundary, and from the exterior of a space. The outline of this thesis will consist of an introduction, a case study analysis and some concluding remarks. The introduction will present three buildings which will be used as case studies for analysis. The first chapter will identify the formal qualities of the interior of a space by the elements contained in it. The second chapter will identify formal qualities of space from the configuration of its boundary. The last chapter will identify the formal qualities from the exterior of the space through the properties of position and proportion. === by Kai Ie Lie. === M.Arch.
