This thesis examines California wildfires as a lens for exploring architecture, memory, and ecological vulnerability. Using collage and redrawing, it investigates how time, space, and materiality shape the deconstruction of structures and landscapes. Rather than memorializing loss, it constructs a tangential index of environmental and architectural conditions, anchoring shifts to sites of communal and cultural significance. Through speculative interventions, it reimagines architectural loss as an opportunity for reflection, adaptation, and new spatial possibilities in fire-prone landscapes, demonstrating transformation.
