PROGRESS + PRESERVATION: CRITICAL ARCHITECTURE AT DALE HOLLOW LAKE, TENNESSEE

Hesse, Shawn

Abstract Details

2004, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Art, Architecture, and Planning: Architecture (Master of).
This thesis begins with a place; Dale Hollow Lake, on the border of Kentucky and Tennessee. It is an exploration of critically practicing architecture in response and respect to this region. It will explore current issues of critically regional architecture concerning tectonics, local materials, social, geological, and political history. It will explore what it means to build in a regional way at Dale Hollow Lake in 2004. It consists of specific study of these issues which can lead to further understanding of similar situations elsewhere in the world. It differs from the current conception of Critical Regionalism in its multiple scales of intervention- a regional planning and zoning strategy, and a pedagogical link with local trade schools and craftsmen, carried through to building design and construction. It fits within the study of regionalism in its in-depth examination of a specific place, testing the thesis that there is an appropriate architecture to Dale Hollow that enriches and is enriched by the place.
