Structure as Architecture

Structure can remain hidden, or it can become part of the architectural language. The most successful projects allow engineering and design to strengthen one another.

Structure as Architecture

Structure is not only the system that keeps a building standing. It can also influence proportion, rhythm and spatial experience.

When engineering and architecture meet

Early coordination between architectural and structural design allows both disciplines to develop together instead of competing for space later.

Structural logic can become visible in columns, spans, grids and transitions between materials.

The best structural solution is often the one that makes the architectural idea clearer.
