Architectural works have held our collective and individual imagination through the emotions they evoke. Imbuing the exposed structure with connotations can make it a powerful vehicle for architectural concepts. Inspired by natural or manmade objects, exposed structures add a new dimension to the building and facilitate the communication of conceptual narratives.
A building’s structure is the most fundamental component which organizes all other elements. Seen solely from a physical perspective, all buildings are basically structural constructs. Often structure gets shrouded in materials, finishes and details to the extent that it finds very little representation in the resulting architectural form. Arrangements of facade panels, suspended ceilings and partition walls are done to conceal structure.
However, when designers choose to expose the structure, it can make for very expressive buildings. Structural design is constantly challenged with greater demands of spans and column-free spaces. Innovative solutions designed to meet these demands are worthy of being celebrated.
