sectional interconnections

Imbalance

Imagined within New Orleans’ CBD, the proposal works to unify both its setting and visitors within the building through sectional relationships, moving from the public ground floor to the increasingly private upper offices. Offsetting of a parti cube with a centralized courtyard allows for grand terrace spaces on the interior and exterior, made possible by steel cantilevers and trusses within the proposal’s structure. Openness is welcomed through a transparent and fluid ground floor broken into four permeable interiors, as well as open office plans above.
