An exterior civic precedent featuring a large floating volume with a dynamic, undulating louvered facade that glows at dusk above a transparent ground floor.
- What we like about this project
- The central louver pattern morphs dynamically like a woven textile across the flat facade plane.

- Geometry
- Symmetrical horizontal volume floating above a glazed ground level, featuring a central undulating louver pattern across the upper facade.
- Facade system
- Louvred screen and punched window wall over glazed structural curtain wall at ground level.
- Structural guess
- Steel or concrete truss framing allowing large cantilevers and a column-free ground floor threshold.
- Spatial scale
- Large civic scale with a multi-story floating volume resting above a double-height public entrance.
- Lighting
- Twilight sky with interior warm light glowing through the patterned facade and recessed ground floor glazing.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and inviting twilight atmosphere with warm interior light balancing the cool exterior landscape.
- Environmental context
- Set within a landscaped public park with pathways, grass fields, and mature trees surrounding the plaza.
- Spatial experience
- Approached across an open public lawn and paved plaza, the massive floating volume creates a welcoming covered entry porch below.
- Composition rhythm
- Symmetrical frontality with a central undulating pixelated facade rhythm flanked by orderly vertical fins.
