Residential Project
A construction-phase precedent showcasing exposed structural steel framing and wide column bays for large open-plan volumes.
- What we like about this project
- Potted plants placed inside a raw construction frame create an unexpected juxtaposition.

Visual tags

- skeleton
- Geometry
- Open grid of heavy structural steel columns and beams supporting an elevated deck with diagonal bracing visible in the background.
- Structural guess
- Moment-resisting steel frame with wide-flange columns and beams.
- Spatial scale
- Multi-story scale with columns rising over two storeys.
- Lighting
- Bright, low-angle daylight filtering through the open steel frame, casting sharp shadows across the concrete floor.
- Atmosphere
- Bright, airy, and skeletal with a raw industrial quality.
- Environmental context
- Active construction site or open-air podium level with surrounding low-rise context.
- Spatial experience
- Expansive, semi-enclosed volumetric space with clear sightlines through structural bays.
- Composition rhythm
- Repetitive vertical steel columns establish a strong, orderly structural cadence.
