ESTABLISHING FOOD SECURITY FOR THE SICANGU LAKOTA OYATE. DURING WESTWARD EXPANSION OF THE U.S. THE FOOD SYSTEM OF THE NATIVE AMERICAN WAS DESTROYED LEAVIG MANY STARVING AND ULTIMATLEY DIEING. THE FOOD SOVEREIGNTY INITIATIVE AIMS TO PROVIDE THE NATIVE AMERICANS WITH A FORM OF FOOD SECURITY THAT NOT ONLY NOURISHES THIER BODY, BUT THEIR MINDS AND SPIRITS AS WELL. THROUGH WORKING WITH THE LAND AND HONORING WHAT THE EARTH THE CAN PROVIDE, NATIVE TRIBES ARE ABLE TO RE-ESTABLISH THEM SELVES AND THEIR CULTURE. THIS THESIS AIMS TO ANALYZE HOW THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT CAN AID IN THE RENEWAL OF THESE TRIBES AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LAND.

JURERS COMMENTS - Building not embedded in the land.

- Everything in the building & landscape needs to have a reason.

- Emphasize spiritual aspects & integrate cultural aspects in design.

- Look at the site in section & let the topo drive the form of the building shape.

- Building should be low skill- use the building to educate and build skills.

- Design a building that can adjust to the weather.

- Be careful of over-reaching from the tipi image. Dig deeper.

EACH WALL PANEL CAN SLIDE OR PIVOT TO PROVIDE SHELTER FROM WIND, RAIN OR SUN. DURING THE WINTER, THE INTERIOR SPACE IS PROTECTED BY SLATTED WALLS WHICH SLOW WIND IN ORDER TO KEEP SPACE COMFORTABLE AND ALLOW FRESH AIR TO PASS THROUGH FOR VENTILATION. THE PANELS ALSO SERVE TO LIMIT NOISE AND MAINTAIN EQUAL PRESSURE THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING.

PRECEDENT STUDIES INSPIRATION: LOOKING AT DIFFERENT WAYS MY BUILDING CAN RELATE TO THE GROUND CONCEPT: Touch the ground lightly- preservation of the natural landscape while taking advantage of sun, wind and climate.

DESIGN RESULT: -Linear one room width plan (Ensures views of nature from every room) -Raised platform (Enforces temporality of dwelling and views of surrounding tree canopies) - Metallic horizontally oriented cladding (Emphasizes horizontality or building and landscape)

BALL & EASTAWAY HOUSE- GLENN MURCUTT

INTERIOR IMAGE 13 CONCEPT: Low lying vernacular form that embraces the surrounding prairie

DESIGN RESULT: -”Z” shape plan (Permits views of the prairie on almost every side) -At grade floor level with large overhangs (Provides simple transition between indoor to outdoor space) - Operable wall panels (Open up the space and allows the prairie into the building.)

CONCEPT: A building that acts as an extension of the landscape. Providing an experience of livingin the Earth.

INTERIOR VIEWS - LOBBY

EARTH THE PATTERNING OF THE WOODEN PANELS ON THE FACADE WERE INSPIRED BY THE LAKOTA SYMBOL FOR EARTH. IT IS INTENDED THAT ON WARMER DAYS, THE PANELS CAN OPEN AND PERMIT THE NATURAL BREEZES TO VENTILATE THE INTERIOR SPACE.

THESE VIEWS ARE TAKEN FROM THE LARGE COMMUNITY SPACE IN THE LOBBY. THIS SPACE IS INTENDED TO BE A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN CONGRUGATE AND EAT. THE MAIN VIEW FROM THIS SPACE IS OUT TOWARD THE PRAIRIE. FROM THIS SPACE YOU CAN ACCESS THE COMMERICAL KITCHEN, THE LIBRARY, EXHIBIT AND POWWOW GROUNDS. ON DAYS OF CEREMONY THE MUSIC PLAYERS CAN SET UP ON THE STAGE LOCATED JUST OUTSODE THE FOLDING DOORS SEEN IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT VIEW.
