Thesis Defended

Well, it's been about a week now since I defended my thesis. It's a sort of bittersweet feeling to be done with the project.

But of course, nothing is ever really done. I know that as I move forward out of academia and into practice, all of the questions this project raised will continue to find their way into whatever project it is I am working on. The question of old and new in architecture is one that we can never really get away from. There is always a layer of history that is associated with any project, and that history must be thoughtfully dealt with.

The defense was an opportunity for me to share with the faculty and other students what I had discovered while working for the past year of my life on this project, and hopefully I will be able to make many more discoveries as I move forward with the next step of my life.
