B1b2 Timber Tower
An interior lobby corridor precedent showcasing raw board-formed concrete finishes paired with a warm timber doorway and a dramatic terminus window.
- What we like about this project
- The tie-hole patterns on the concrete wall continue uninterrupted across structural panel joints.

Visual tags
- corridor

- interior-architecture
- urban-view
- Geometry
- Rectangular circulation corridor leading to a full-height end window framing an exterior building facade.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete core walls
- Spatial scale
- Human-scale elevator lobby corridor, approximately two meters wide.
- Lighting
- Intense daylight entering from the full-height end window casting a diagonal light streak across the floor; warm ambient artificial ceiling downlights.
- Atmosphere
- Calm, tactile, and grounded, balancing cool concrete textures with warm timber details and striking natural light.
- Environmental context
- Interior corridor overlooking an adjacent dense urban building facade through the window.
- Spatial experience
- Transitioning from a dim, heavily textured corridor toward a bright exterior view at the termination of the path.
- Composition rhythm
- Asymmetrical foreground framing with a central perspective vanishing point at the end window.
