Like inhabitable diagrams, these installations can be read as two fragments of a 3D-gridded matrix—the timber framework expressing x-, y-, and z- lines of interconnecting spatial relations." Post it here.
They took full advantage of available software tools, including Ladybug , which combines geometry in Rhino and the parametric interface of Grasshopper with open-source weather data from EnergyPlus to create climate analysis graphics and diagrams. 1) The structuralengineer for the house was Jok Ang, PE, SE of MAE Engineering.
The diagram of the house is simple—an outdoor triangle within an indoor triangle supporting a diamond shaped roof. Post it here. Like a ship’s prow, the sharpest end of this triangular house deflects the formidable wind. " The house gets its name from its resemblance in plan to the Hawaiian version of the Japanese wrapped rice snack onigiri.
The building is composed of a repeated structural system – a concept that delivers flexibility and efficiency. ka, Anne-Sereine Tremblay Anagram A-U Team: Marina Kounavi Collaborator: Konstantina Lola Main Visualizations: The Big Picture StructuralEngineering and MEP: Jika-CZ Year: 2022 Images: Courtesy of Anagram A-U.
In the ever-evolving landscape of modern architecture and construction, the complexity of building projects is escalating, with each decision intricately linked to factors like structural integrity, sustainability, cost efficiency and aesthetic value.

When altering both the interior and exterior, a sensitivity to the existing structure was observed. This curvaceous approach also acts as a diagram to contrast new vs old. The new addition stands in contrast with contemporary details, larger open spaces, and modernist massing.

Houses We Love: Every day we feature a remarkable space submitted by our community of architects, designers, builders, and homeowners. The farmhouse is designed as a place for family and friends to gather.

In response to the brief, LUCA POIAN FORMS envisioned a building that by virtue of its scale, form, and materiality will be executed as a highly refined structure that celebrates Islamic tradition whilst also paying homage to British craft. StructuralEngineer: Price & Myers. Service Engineer: Skelly & Couch.
The depth between the structure and the exterior walls provides shadow and reduces the solar heat gain inside the apartments. The coloured tiles, a typical material largely used in Taiwanese architecture, come together in a playful composition to pattern the visual identity of Kaohsiung Social Housing. Source by Mecanoo.
The parti diagrams revolved around the duality of the experience: light lobby/dark performance space, See/Be Seen, reality/fantasy, tension/release – translated as clear/opaque, heavy/light, smooth/textured… a balance of opposites. This project represents the importance of designing local projects within a global firm structure.
In response, the residence is an open structure, organized into three layers, which radiate from a communal nucleus to a periphery of private zones. From a perspective of form, it is an anomaly – a lone round element in an otherwise orthogonal structure. Conceptually and functionally, it is even more distinctive. Consultants.

The plan is capped with a seemingly simple roof that structurally and formally responds to the extensive snowfalls that can happen in the area. Modesty is observed in the roof’s formal and structural concept using framed and clad trusses to increase lateral stability, but these have a dual purpose.
The roof’s materiality and structure take the traditional Meinong oil paper and bamboo umbrella as inspiration. The poured-in-place concrete structure opens onto an entry plaza with a sweeping glass lobby tucked beneath the sloping shape of the stands. It spans the entire distance in one sweep.
This system is combined with the fabric structure to form a monumental “light box.” The lighting devices are installed parallel to one another on the main steel structure and longitudinal structure to illuminate the translucent membrane surface from behind and softly brighten the façade through secondary reflection.
Other than a ‘rain jacket’ of weathering steel on the exterior and radiant concrete flooring, all structural components and surfaces within the building are exposed wood without the need for additional finishes or fireproofing.
Not to underestimate the energy embodied in that process, but if you took the Apple building – the concrete structure is reinforced, so it's working structurally – obviously, nothing new," he explained.

The structure’s concept began as a simple diagram – a folded sheet of paper, carefully sliced, and able to stand on its own. As Logan explains, the structure presents “an offering, it [FILTER] changes the environment and creates its own.”. CLB Architects and EMIT.
The Makers’ KUbe is a 50,000-square-foot mass timber cube structure. The KUbe’s distinct timber diagrid frame – engineered by structuralengineer StructureCraft – is optimized to reduce material and curtail carbon-intensive concrete. Source by BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group.
The canopy’s aluminium cladded steel structural grid – defined by the regular rhythm of Collegio dei Nobili’s façade – is in itself a device for rainwater collection, air ventilation, and lighting provision, answering to the museum’s ambitions for sustainability.
m long, and up to three-storey high structural frameworks, leaving all the partition walls non-load-bearing to create spaces of different sizes and uses – from standard classrooms and offices, to auditorium and gymnasium, to gardens and athletic tracks.
