Abstract
Many buildings designed and built today have no ties to their natural surroundings. These buildings are clad in exotic materials and colors to strive for originality. They are built on flat sites with no regard to the natural landscape and environment.
An organic architectual statement blends to the site by complimenting the natural surroundings. An organic building can amalgamate, tie itself, link and connect to the site, to flow into nature. I wish to make an architectual statement by designing a man-made facility that will gain its originality through organic design.
