This edition of DETAIL presents buildings in which the roof defines both the building's form as perceived from the exterior and the space below it. Examples include: the Tolded, load-bearing wood structure creating a complex space above a swimming poo! near London; a series of pitched concrete roots serving as the playful culmination ‘of vacation home near Stockholm; and the shimmer- ing-gold hip roofs crowning a museum in Ahrenshoop and making subtle reference to the region's reed roofs, through the use of irregularly bent-to-shape brass.

The building is organised on thrae main levels; basement, ground floor and first floor. ts principal interior ga- lores are relatively simple, box-like volumes ‘constructed in conerate, Around these are situated smaller-scale side galleries whose forms are more playful and sculpted, Thase ‘paces are connected by a circulation zone ‘that acts as a central element ofthe exper- ‘ence, offering muttiple opportunities to pause, with views out fo the surrounding ‘woods. The journey through the museum is ‘completed bby an extemal circulation route leaving to @ series of terraces on three lev- ls, stepping up from east to west. The an- tire building Is wrapped in a series of glass sails, or*verrieres’, which serve as a per- ‘meable enclosure forthe terraces and oxte rior elculation zones, defining their volumes ‘and shettering users from the slements. The resulting spaces are unique, whilo the na- ture ofthe glazed surfaces themselves are ethereal, bluring the sense of enclosure and breaking down the distinetion botweon the building and the sky.

However, due tothe structure's geometrical complexity, eccan- trcities were inevitable, and these tended to introduce additional secondary torsional and bending forces, The classic connection dltail involves slotting a vertical etoel plato into the timber section and linking the two vat a grid of 16 mm diameter transversal pins. This approach had to be adapted to incorporate to plates in order to generate the push-pull necessary to wrensfer the sec ‘ondary torsion and bending forces. This technique required high-precision fabrica- tion so that the pre-diled holes forthe pins in the timber aligned perfectly with those in tho twin plates.
