From an intensive study on landscape formations on Mars, an architectural language sets the stage for a tectonic relationship between land and dwelling. The possibility for a community on Mars poses the potential for an unrealized architecture, one that has not been previously exposed. Through analytical, layered, and transformative drawings, hand-crafted, shopped, and laser-crafted models, and 3-dimensional CAD and Rhino models, a final model was created at the 1’=1/2” scale and a narrative and architectural drawing was developed at 3’x 9’.
