Rooftecture C, Kobe Hyogo

Together with halftecture, rooftecture questions the prescribing of composition components in a design. The metal roof curves, much like the hill behind it, to meet the ground and assume exterior walls. The masonry walls seem more like landscape features, but curve under the ceiling to form. A variety of translucent and clear materials add to form a truly diverse space. Completed in 2002.
