Structures

The first project aims to understand the structural system, junction details, proportion of members, and the effect a material has on the construction technique used. Rani no Hajiro was the chosen case study, helping us understand stone as a material, through a series of drawings. 
The second project is a staircase that has been designed in the given space using timber as its structural member. A series of drawings and models explain the details, junction details, materials with section sizes, and finishes.
