Exemplar - CCTV Building (Building Form)




The following CCTV Building in China, designed by OMA Architects, is representative and ideal for the design which I want to develop for my multi-arts complex. Specifically, I like the way that the structure is expressed, with naturally visible cross bracing along the external skin of the building. Additionally, the play with large scale and a continuous planned form over levels creates a picture of inspirational architecture. This is enhanced through its simple design, yet its strong presence and overwhelming stature allows it to take form as an iconic building.



I want to create a design which establishes a strong interplay of continuous form with a visible expressed structure.
