Mapping terrains to reveal architectonic strategies for Exposition Park site development in Los Angeles.
Interpreting Topographic Landscapes
“Nature is no longer what is embraced from a far away point of view where the observer could ideally jump to see things “as a whole”, but the assemblage of contradictory entities that have to be composed together.” [Bruno Latour, Waiting for Gaia]
