A hospitality exterior precedent for curved, double-skin perforated brick facades that filter light and frame courtyards along a street edge.
- What we like about this project
- Large rectilinear window punctures contrast sharply against the sweeping curves of the small-format brick screens.

- textural
- hospitality
- daylight-control
- Geometry
- Curvilinear massing features undulating double-skin brick walls with staggered openings and indented courtyards.
- Facade system
- Double-skin perforated brick screen wall with glazed punctures.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with non-structural masonry screen walls.
- Spatial scale
- Human-scaled street frontage; two-story curved volumes.
- Lighting
- High-contrast daylight with strong shadows cast across the textured brick surfaces.
- Atmosphere
- Monolithic yet porous, blending tactile brick texture with luminous shadow patterns.
- Environmental context
- Urban sidewalk edge with surrounding low-rise context under a dramatic cloudy sky.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching from the sidewalk, the permeable brick screen creates shifting shadow play and filters views into deep courtyards.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating stretcher-bond masonry units create a dense horizontal tectonic grid.
