+ Transplanted Landscapes / Grafted Histories

My architecture is creating a visual language to represent an idea about reading the context of what is observed. I am planning to design an airship which goes through the landscape and looks from different angles to the structures on the landscape over the time. Airship is a metaphor which represents the idea of being in a corridor that connect the buildings in the Stowe Garden and the places the buildings inspired from. The purpose of the project is to discover an architecture which is secret in history of the architect’s mind.
