Lecture

Through the Glass Surface

Description

This lecture explores the concept of cutting through structures to understand their volumes, using the example of transforming a historic mansion in Paris into a conference center by vertically sectioning the building and creating new foundations. The process involves overlaying new functions onto the existing context, covered by a glass surface that provides natural light to the interior spaces while giving the impression of a water feature from the outside.
