This blog is intended to be a continuously evolving archive and record of my work as part of the Rationalist Traces M.Arch unit at the University of Dundee. Hopefully over time a coherent theme will become evident in the work posted and by the end of the year this blog will serve as an artefact in itself, showing a clear narrative and iteration in my year's work (fingers crossed). -- Gregor Tait --

These drawings were produced after visiting Claypotts Castle. They demonstrate basic characteristics of the tower house typology, showing the large rectangular element in the centre which contains the main functions and the two smaller circular forms containing circulation and secondary spaces.
