A design project, for a new school of architecture for the KU. The site is the Kansas University Campus
The idea begun from Frei Otto`s studies of lattice structures with rigid joins, and became a study of how a structural system can `overcome` its main property {that of being structurally efficient} and became a system that is at the same time an `ornamental` element and the element that defines spaces {and of course the structural system as well}. Also an attempt to see how this complexity can be fitted inside {and used in order to define} a volume as simple as that of a box.
