ACSA

The concourse is the connector of all programs and is a space where informal discussions/ display & interaction occur, it's a full volume intertwining corridor.
The structural system works like a weave; the weave (structural member) moves in the two directions, these directors were generated by the deformation of the circulation corridors, the steel member is either a multiple weld joint formation, cast or rivet joint to other members, the blending of a wall member to a floor mullion is seamless and at parts visual. The columns no longer remain just vertical but transfer loads with shifting cg's; right to the ground where it would become a part of the landscape.
