i love how the roof overhangs create an arched shadow on the facade 😍 really nice interplay of light& shadow.

dont think ive seen this posted here:

there was a plan to turn the office and the adjacent building into housing, however nothing has come of it yet. I believe they are being used as offices/entertainment venue.

here is a few example of RSHP work with similar style roof, Thame reach office Thames uni - this has been demolished now :( Broadwick house:

I appreciate the physics but its seems like poor design choice from the start then. You're right about the steel it would prolly would have worked better, plus you could have made it slimer. Also your point about them being "hung", surely if that the case then they dont support from below 😂...

Is it just me or does this seem like a weird choice? I'm sure they provide stability & rigidity but...... I thought the whole point of the steel bracing was so the floors could be hung without the corners being obstructed?

I have a question, in the renders(1st image) the corners don't have these supporting columns(2nd image), are these continuing the whole way up?
