BEYOND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT,
THE EXTRA LARGE SCALE OF SITE
TAKES AN APPROACH OF BEING
THE RESULTANT GENERATED BY THE
INFLUENCE OF THE PEOPLE THAT
INHABIT IT. THROUGH THE LENS
OF THIS FRAMEWORK, ARCHITECTURE
BECOMES ONLY PART OF THE
LARGER NARRATIVE CREATED BY
THE COMMUNITY THAT INHABIT
ITS SPACES. UNDERSTANDING THAT
THIS PROCESS IS COLLECTIVE, THE
FOCUS OF A FAMILY ALLOWS FOR
THE STORY TO NOT NECESSARILY
MEAN SOMETHING TO EVERYONE;
RATHER, IT PROVIDES A NARRATIVE
UNIQUELY MADE TO MEAN SOMETHING
TO AT LEAST SOMEONE. THROUGH
THE SPECIFIC STORY OF THE LE
FAMILY, THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE
SITE CAN BE FOUND THROUGH THE
FATHER OF THE FAMILY CARRYING
ON THE LEGACY OF HIS FATHER’ᥓ
INSTRUCTION OF TAEKWONDO A
GENERATION LATER. THIS ACT IS
A PASSION SHARED ACROSS OTHER
COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO CREATE A
JOINT NARRATIVE OF THE SITE.
