This my final presentation for the major project, it shows the vertical columns structure to the exterior to create the vertical lines often seen in Mies Van der Rohe's designs. well employ a an adapted portal framing for the warehouse and a post and beam structure for the showroom and office building. my detail focused of a point where the two wall types met. We disguised the portal frame , to make it appear as a stronger horizontal element of the design, often expressed in Mies works. We also thought Rohe's use of glass would be impractical for a warehouse and instead used metal another material of choice for Rohe.

in response to your comment on my blog, paper tubing is used for the lattice grid on the internal face of the wall and a paper membrane with a PVC membrane is used for the cladding of the facade. your project looks great, it's very Mies and minimalist. probably looks and works more conventionally as a warehouse than a Shigeru Ban style, but i think that's what makes Ban's work so intriguing, and why we chose a Ban building, that it is so unconventional but still works.
