An exterior night precedent by Gensler showcasing a glowing translucent facade hovering over a transparent recessed lobby supported by heavy V-columns.
- What we like about this project
- Vertical joints in the upper glowing facade act as integrated light strips.

- Geometry
- Rectilinear upper volume cantilevered above a recessed glazed ground lobby, punctuated by prominent V-shaped structural columns.
- Facade system
- Translucent channel glass or polycarbonate panel system backed by vertical lighting elements.
- Structural guess
- Heavy steel or concrete transfer trusses supporting the upper floors over V-shaped structural pilotis.
- Spatial scale
- Large commercial scale with a double-height ground colonnade beneath a glowing multi-story upper facade.
- Lighting
- Even vertical illumination emanates from behind translucent facade panels at night, complemented by recessed downlights under the canopy.
- Atmosphere
- Luminous, welcoming, and controlled corporate composure at dusk.
- Environmental context
- Urban street edge at dusk with surrounding low-rise context and mature trees framing the pedestrian arcade.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching from the street passes under a deeply sheltered, brightly lit portico that bridges the open public plaza and indoor lobby.
- Composition rhythm
- Vertical luminous panel joints establish a steady rhythm contrasting with the singular dramatic V-column pair.
