Cast in Place Concrete, Glazed Wall System

Situated in 431 Veterans Memorial Parkway, this proposal for a new office building is a combination of curtain wall system and cast in place concrete structure with solar panel roof overhanging from the building. The building is a  L shape massing that responds to the solar orientation where the corner facing true south converts into transparent glazed wall and the envelope transitions into a masonry system with terracotta rainscreen. The building has a continuous grid that binds the pattern of different facades yet the amount of opening in the masonry wall decreases as it gets further away from the south to the north. The split of roof increases the chance for sunlight to enter and passively heat farther into the building rather than just on the front facade.
