50 years in the future: stone breaks and bigger craccks, plants started to grow

water drips from the slanted roof and down through the curved surface

30 years in the future:stone starts to get little cracked and weathered

presence:shale is cut into paneled and stacked up

see through steel mesh

BOAT HOUSE | geographical evolutions of Onondaga Lake| the mass structure is stacked by pieces of stones stacked and fabricated at local Ononadaga Lake, NY| the stones are carved out to create spaces for tourists to walk | erosion of stones occurred from water dripping from the roof and lake water| the stones react to the rain and lake water by erosion evolution, it would probably disappear in the future 100 years

two major types of textures were existent in the landscape: Dendrentic and Irrigation PatternsMan-made vs. Natural

13

| Road House that serves people who are traveling on I-90 highway in Montana| local textures of the landscape are being observed and analyzed: irrigation field vs. dry weed grass| Road House responds to the landscape by channeling rain water with concrete panels and allowing them to flow down to ground to create another type of landscape pattern| water flows from the channels on the roof to the ground to be part of the earth

ON THE ROAD... | I-90 highway| Montana
