work Shoreditch hotel

the 3d structural model

office

The structure of the building consists of reinforced concrete columns and slabs. Despite the dynamic appearance of the faƧade, which curves to form a cantilever, the structure follows a conventional orthogonal system.

A reinforced concrete load-bearing wall serves as the main structure of the cantilever, while the other floors are supported by a framework of beams and columns.

To fit the structure with the interior layout of the building, the columns are sometimes transferred between levels to form a grid that works with the car park located in the basement.
