Overview

Reading the roof from within—glass expressivity, structural ribs, and sky as a changing ceiling.


Structure & Glass

  • Ribs choreograph glass fields and drainage.
  • Fixings maintain tolerances under thermal movement.

Sky as Ceiling

  • Seasonal light alters interior mood.
  • Weather writes temporary architecture on surfaces.

Visitor Notes

  • Track rib spacing and glass seams
  • Compare roof readings in morning vs dusk
