structural architectures

The beauty of implementing raw structural elements in you architecture or over your site, is that it allows you to sculpt and manipulate an 'outdoor space', both visually and spatially. Covered but not covered.
Similar to using glass walls, but in a more bold fashion, and its unique in that the pattern and shapes of the structural elements 'interact' with the view you see, rather than being completely transparent.

As Russell always says, you are what you eat, so here are some cool structural architectures that caught my attention and inspired me.






                This was interesting in that it uses truss structure as the façade (which I haven't seen before), and the nature of this work is similar in that this person is designing for a site similar to us, with a similar medium as well.
