Aesthetic Exoskeleton Interior Design

Exoskeletal frames

The Anatomy of the Exoskeleton An exoskeleton in architecture functions much like its biological counterpart: it supports, protects, and defines form from the outside. Instead of hiding structural systems within walls, architects expose them—turning beams, trusses, and joints into expressive design elements. This inversion of the traditional building hierarchy liberates interior spaces from ...

Deploying macro-bracing across the exterior enables design teams to push the possibilities of contemporary steelwork, and our imagination in the process. It's a deliberate aesthetic choice, often fraught with technical obstacles, but one that describes the drama unfolding before spectators below.

The exoskeleton design approached maximizes the usable interior space as columnar interference within the building was eliminated.
