Situated between the town of Medora and Theodore Roosevelt National Park, this building mediates the transition between the townscape and landscape. When facing the town and road entering national park, this building establishes a more solid presence with stone and concrete facades. When viewed from National Park, the building appears to be a stepped landscape and subtle carvings cuts into the topography. In this way, the building had a duality that responds to Theodore Roosevelt’s achievement and controversies. In this way, the architecture is seen as inhabited landscape.
