A sculptural courtyard intervention featuring radiating perforated metal fins and a tubular entry portal that doubles as a drainage system.
- What we like about this project
- A living tree trunk pierces directly through the base of the circular entry tube.

- site-responsive
- Geometry
- A circular tubular entry cuts through a wall with radiating, fan-like perforated metal fins that expand upward.
- Facade system
- Perforated metal screen with folded radial louvers and corrugated profiles.
- Structural guess
- Lightweight steel armature supporting folded metal cladding panels.
- Spatial scale
- Human-scale courtyard installation; the circular opening is roughly doorway-height.
- Lighting
- Direct sunlight casts sharp shadows across the paved courtyard and highlights the faceted texture of the metal screen.
- Atmosphere
- Dynamic and textural, blending industrial metal work with organic foliage and old brickwork.
- Environmental context
- Enclosed traditional courtyard space framed by brick walls, mature trees, and adjacent buildings.
- Spatial experience
- The courtyard narrows toward the sculptural metallic facade, drawing the eye through the circular portal into a shaded recess.
- Composition rhythm
- Radiating folded fins create a sunburst geometric rhythm above the circular threshold.
