Site as Dwelling_Dwelling as Site

Well everyone, here we are: the first year architecture students have been assigned their final project for the semester. It is titled: "Site as Dwelling_Dwelling as Site". In this project, we have been challenged to design a "dwelling" (not house) for a prescribed client. The dwelling has to be a part of the site, and the site must be part of the dwelling, hence the project's title.  We are currently investigating the different possibilities of how the dwelling is placed on the site so that it does not exist solely as an object that simply floats in the field that is the site.  I am currently working on site studies in which my houses exists within terraces that manipulate the landscape. Stay tuned people, this is bound to get interesting.
