Structural Framing as an Architectural
Expression

SUVARNABHUMI
INTERNATIONAL
AIRPORT
(BANGKOK, THAILAND)
New building design
trends such as open
architecture, curved
plate, and exposed-
to-view structural
elements have
changed the
requirements for roll
bending equipment
used in construction.
LLOYDS BUILDING
BY RICHARD ROGERS
(LONDON, ENGLAND)
Expressed structure and exposed
services as ornamental order.
Steel frame with glass curtain wall
construction.
Massive structural expressionist cast exoskeleton, "exterior"
escalators enclosed in transparent tube.

High-tech steel and glass construction system
LYON AIRPORT
STATION
BY SANTIAGO CALATRAVA
(LYON, FRANCE)
It is an iron structure, which is mostly exposed
both inside and out. The walls of the building
facades, on the north and south, contained 25
iron bars each one, which are covered by large
windows.
The two interiors
arches help to
support the
structure of the
lobby, and exterior
arches support iron
large wings.

TOWER
BY SANTIAGO CALATRAVA
(MALM, SWEDEN)
In order to follow the buildings twisting structure,
which was inspired by a human body in movement,
the glass faade features a complex double-curved
shape. The tower is made from concrete, steel,
glass, and recyclable aluminum.

GLENN MURCUTT
ARCHITECT AND ENVIRONMENTALIST
The Pritzker Prize-winning architect
Glenn Murcutt is not a builder of
skyscrapers.

Marika-Alderton
House
The Marika-Alderton
house exemplifies the
dwelling in its simplest
form. Designed for an
Aboriginal couple, the
construction has a strong
environmental focus and
is ingeniously designed
to adapt to the hot,
tropical climate of the
Northern Territory
Source: http://marty-dab310.blogspot.com/
The Aboriginal proverb - 'touch
the earth lightly' - plays a central
role in the inception of his
designs, solidifying the intimate
relationship between the built and
natural environment

Murcutt chooses materials that can
be produced easily and
economically: Glass, stone, brick,
concrete, and corrugated metal. He
pays close attention to the
movement of the sun, moon, and
seasons, and designs his buildings
to harmonize with the movement of
light and wind.

GREAT BAMBOO WALL
HOUSE
BEIJING, CHINA
COMPLETED IN 2002 BY KENGO KUMA & ASSOCIATES
As for the material, we used bamboo as much as possible, since its considered as
having a significant meaning among Chinese and Japanese cultures. Depending on
density of bamboo and its each diameter, it offers a variety of partitioning of space.
Making the most of that characteristics, we decided to place a bamboo WALL, a layer of
bamboo along the sites inclination just like the Great Wall. The Great Wall in the past
partitioned off two cultures, but this BAMBOO WALL would not only partition but also
unite life and culture in various manners as the Great Wall in particles.
Kengo Kumas Key Design Philosophies:

Particalisation
Blurring Boundaries of Interior and Exterior
Transparency
Erasing Architecture
Local materials or materials pertinent to
context
Nature and Built Environment Peacefully
Coexisting
Simple but critical application of basic
materials (wood, rice paper, water, bamboo,
nature, light)

SHIGERU BAN
HUMANITARIAN ARCHITECT
WE DONT NEED INNOVATIVE IDEAS. WE JUST NEED TO BUILD NORMAL
THINGS THAT CAN BE MADE EASILY AND QUICKLY. A HOUSE IS A HOUSE.
Japanese architect Shigeru Ban, who
is internationally known for his work
with paper architecture and its
implementation in the aftermath of
numerous disasters around the globe.
Architecture is rooted in the basic human
need for shelter. But the profession today
pays little attention to situations where the
need for shelter is most urgent, such as
after a disaster.
Ban first made his name in the mid-1990s
with his use of lightweight paper tubes as
structural and enclosing elements in
buildings. In paper tubes, Ban found a
material that is cheap, strong, sustainable,
and readily available, but its wholesome
brown blandness is hardly glamorous.
Presenting a low cost and low
impact alternative to aluminum
or wood structural supports, Ban
was able to build fifty paper tube
and tarp shelters to temporarily
house a portion of the wars
displaced, his first chance to
evaluate the paper architecture
system in practical use.
The temporary shelters that he
designed for occupation by
disaster survivors there
consisted of a beer crate and
sandbag foundation, 4mm thick
paper tube walls with waterproof
sponge tape for insulation, and a
tensile fabric roof. By deploying
common and easily recyclable
materials to their maximum
effect, Mr. Bans prototype for a
dry and sturdy 170 sqf home
cost under $2000 and took a
matter of hours to build.

In this, Bans architecture is rooted in
the modernist credo that function
begets beauty. Such an architecture
sees its main task as problem-
solving. Disasters create huge
problems; architectures mission is to
solve them.
MECHANICAL &
ELECTRICAL
SYSTEMS
REQUIREMENTS
LOCATION and DIRECTION must be
coordinated with the intended
structural framing of the building

THE COLOR CODE
The colors have been used as
cover for the structure element,
according to a "code" defined by
the architects
- blue for air circulation (air
conditioning)
- yellow for electrical circulations
- green for the flow of water
- red for the movement of people
(escalators, elevators).
This is "color code" as a symbol
of the multidisciplinary Centre
Pompidou, which refers to the
title of the program quarterly
magazine.

CENTRE GEORGES
POMPIDOU

Within each floor level, there are
exposed below-ceiling services
for air delivery, ductwork, and
lighting.

HOUSE IN
NIPPONBASHI
WARO KISHI +
K.ASSOCIATES/ARCHITECTS
The house was built on an extremely
small plot of land in downtown Osaka.
The facade of the building, 2.5 m in
width, fills the entire front of the site. The
house is 13 m deep, and the lower three
floors were kept as low as possible.
As a result, the structure not only
emphasizes the vertical direction but
takes full advantage of the depth of the
narrow site.

with 6m high ceiling + roof garden
steel beams and pillars can be
seen throughout the interior

JEAN NOUVEL
THE HOUSE OF JEAN
PROUV

Working from the postulate that there was
no structural difference between a piece of
furniture and a building, Jean Prouv
developed a constructional philosophy
whose artifice-free aesthetic of
functionality and fabrication applied the
same principles to furnishings and
architecture. First produced in small series
in the 1930s, his structures were
assembled and integrated with the aid of
shrewdly designed systems for
modification, dismantling and moving of
both furniture and buildings.
HOUSE IN
NAKAGYO
WARO KISHI
House in Nakagyo stands in the middle of a typical
Kyoto district with mixed-use commercial and
residential buildings to the south. The narrow site is
oriented north-south and fronts streets on the south
and west sides. It is designed for a dealer of antiques
and the first floor provides a place to receive visitors,
while the second and third floors provide residential
quarters.
