About the Book
This thesis is a cohesive design solution
that integrated tornado resistant structures,
community design, future implications of climate

As global warming progresses architects
and engineers will no longer have the
luxury of producing buildings reliant on modern
technology to make up for fl awed design. In

will become far more common. This project is
a directly concentrated on these future forecasts
