Green Frame

The Green Frame Project focuses on designing a building system where the primary structure is exposed and spans through the length of the site while separating into 3 main bodies. The space frame construction introduces a new usable space that is embedded and one with the structure. Instead of just being structural, the space frame hosts circulation paths, plant pods and water collection units. Holistically, the building becomes a living, sustainable green space that acts as an envelope for all of its amenities.
