An innovative architectural precedent for complex multi-layered civic facades using perforated geometric metal panels to create dynamic sun shading and volumetric depth.
- What we like about this project
- The triangular perforations vary in density to create subtle gradient shading across the twisted ribbon facade.

Visual tags
- parametric
- civic
- complex-geometry
- perforated-screen
- modern-envelope
- Geometry
- Complex multi-tiered overlapping volumetric bands that wrap around an inner glazed core, featuring sweeping diagonal cantilevers and folded geometry.
- Facade system
- Double-skin system with outer perforated metal screen panels and inner glazed curtain wall.
- Structural guess
- Steel space frame supporting cantilevered screen ribbons independent of the primary inner structure.
- Spatial scale
- Multi-story civic scale; lower glazed storefront sits under heavy cantilevered upper layers.
- Lighting
- Overcast daylight with internal illumination glowing softly through the perforated panels and glazing below.
- Atmosphere
- Futuristic and lightweight despite the heavy steel and metal tectonic presence.
- Environmental context
- Urban public plaza edge with neighboring buildings visible in the background.
- Spatial experience
- The layered tectonic envelope creates a deep transition zone between the public plaza and the interior spaces, framing dynamic sightlines upward.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating triangular cutout modules establishing a rhythmic texture across sweeping horizontal bands.
