First of all...new thesis statement / introduction to prospectus


The threshold, among many architectural details, tends to be overlooked and quite often passed through on a regular basis. Without ever questioning this boundary, we neglect to consider that this moment could embody something more, a moment where one idea, principle, or feeling ends and another potentially begins. In parallel with that of the human life, a threshold represents a continuous state of transition, implying a dynamic experience and one that could potentially grow, neglecting any sort of static behavior. This thesis stimulates the concept of a place where the user can rest in preparation and anticipation of the next. At the point of threshold is where it is desired to suspend the moment and prolong the experience, ultimately creating an exaggerated transition. The outcome would entail an inhabitable space; or spatial threshold, and how an individual will essentially dwell within, occupy, and experience this intermediate zone.
