The Office as Urban Icon

This series of studies explores the office not only as form and structure, but as a negotiation between opposites. Solid and void, weight and transparency, stand in constant dialogue. Simple volumes overlap and interlock, finding clarity through order and connection. Four sites were examined, each tested against questions of transparency, geometry, street edge, pedestrian experience, neighbourhood scale, and visual weight.

The plan is reduced to essentials, with structure and systems articulated as part of the architectural narrative.

At the street, a building should create an edge between public and private but should also be open. Heavy masses are countered by porous links; solidity is interrupted by voids, generating legibility and counterpoint. A building need not recede into anonymity. It should stand with clarity, marked by restraint, but offering an architecture of meaning.
