An exterior precedent demonstrating the pairing of a fluid, weathered-steel upper volume with industrial external stairs and a sheltered courtyard.
- What we like about this project
- The undulating profiled panels of the upper story create a soft, textile-like drape effect using rigid weathering steel.
Materials

- steel
- glass
- stone-paving

- Geometry
- An asymmetrical, undulating corten steel upper volume hovers over a dark recessed ground level, contrasted against an orthogonal multi-story industrial facade with external stairways.
- Facade system
- Corten steel rainscreen with vertical shadow gaps and punched openings over a dark glazed or paneled ground floor.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame structure supporting cantilevered upper volumes and exterior egress stairs.
- Spatial scale
- Human-scaled courtyard space with a multi-story facade overhead.
- Lighting
- Diffused overcast daylight creating soft shadows and even illumination across metal and paving surfaces.
- Atmosphere
- Contrasting rusty warmth against cool charcoal steel and muted daylight.
- Environmental context
- Urban infill courtyard framed by renovated industrial or commercial structures.
- Spatial experience
- Movement from the covered walkway opens into a contained paved courtyard framed between contrasting organic metallic volumes and utilitarian circulation.
- Composition rhythm
- Vertical reveal joints punctuate the horizontal waves of the corten cladding, juxtaposed with the zig-zag rhythm of the metal escape stairs.
- Style reading
- Contemporary industrial adaptive reuse with organic metallic additions
