Overview
STRUCTURAL EXPRESSIONISM / NEO-EXPRESSIONISM is a global architectural style rooted in Global (Calatrava/Spain, Foster/UK, Utzon/Denmark, Nervi/Italy); Core identity: Structure IS the architecture - exposed skeletal frame and load paths celebrated as visual content - dramatic long-span forms - white or light-toned structural members (steel, concrete) - building as a constructed organism with bones, ribs, and spine - engineering as the primary aesthetic - no applied cladding over the structural truth. Structure IS the architecture -...
