An exterior office building precedent featuring dark brick cladding paired with a recessed double-height glazed portico, useful for corporate entrance and facade studies.
- What we like about this project
- The deep corner cantilever sharply frames the upper signage while keeping the ground floor entry deeply shadowed.

- Geometry
- Rectangular massing articulated by a prominent corner volume, a cantilevered entrance canopy, and a recessed double-height glazed porch supported by slender white columns.
- Facade system
- Dark masonry veneer with punched windows and a structural glass curtain wall inset.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with masonry infill and steel porch columns.
- Spatial scale
- Three-to-four story commercial scale with a human-scaled ground floor portal.
- Lighting
- Bright ambient daylight with high-angle sun casting sharp shadows beneath overhangs and framing the dark brick volumes.
- Atmosphere
- Professional, grounded, and clean with stark contrasts between dark masonry and white structural accents.
- Environmental context
- Urban courtyard setting with mature deciduous trees and paved pedestrian ground surface.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching from a paved courtyard framed by planters, the entrance transitions from open public space beneath a deep overhanging canopy into the glazed lobby.
- Composition rhythm
- Asymmetrical composition balancing solid dark brick masses against a transparent vertical structural bay.
