Description

My design is a fifteen-story building that overlooks the San Francisco Bay. The building is made up of two major building segments, the bottom half and the taller vertical component. This contrast in shape catches the eye. The widened bottom floors allow for a more welcoming lobby area. The structural design is simple and mostly made up of vertical columns with the exception of a few braces. Overall, this design is simple yet blends in well with the taller buildings surrounding it. I decided that adding more bracings to the upper part of the building may be over design, so I just have it at the bottom part that’s holding most of the vertical load.
