When working in a densely populated area, architects need to get creative.
And when thinking about their own offices, they’re able to let their imaginations run wild.
The upper level contains a small kitchen and dining space.
It’s on the innovative rooftop where the office comes to life.
Incredibly, the stunning roofline was achieved using only gravity and tension.
They achieved their goal by using a structure where the maximum load was pulled in advance and fixed.
This way, when people climb onto the roof, the tension in the lower vertical pillars slowly decreases.
Compression is only applied when the roof reaches its maximum load of 150 people.
Studio Velocity came up with a unique solution for carving out space where there’s little to be had.
And in leading the way with their own office, they are showing others new creative possibilities.
Studio Velocity uses their curved roof as an extra work and leisure space.
