A design born out of switching between analog and digital mediums — a process that began with a study of Mario Botta's Bianchi House. Core concepts of the Bianchi House were translated into a new structure. The house's elevated procession informed the design of the viewing platforms proposed for this fictitious, craggily Acadia National Park inlet.
