21 Century classrooms

Roofing installed the high-performance roofing system for Texas A&M University’s Innovative Learning Classroom Building, a 117,000-square-foot project that pushes the limits of modern educational design. The building’s roof ties directly into its energy-efficient façade, helping deliver a 31% improvement over regional benchmarks. When installation demands increased, we called our Bryan roofing contractors to support the fast-moving schedule and maintain precision across every phase of the build. Caption In this wide shot, the roof blends seamlessly with surrounding buildings, reinforcing Texas A&M’s push toward sustainable, LEED-aligned construction. More

A Garden Pavilion

Can concrete appear as thin as paper and defy gravity?A cantilevered, ultra-thin concrete roof challenges gravity—not as an artificially generated image that ignores physical laws, but as a real built structure in an ordinary garden. With this 53-square-meter garden pavilion, FACE and DUCON bring ultra-high-performance concrete from the lab into practice, allowing it to float delicately. An 11 by 5 meter, just 90 millimeter thick roof slab hovers over a long table with an integrated fire pit. Along the line of maximum bending moment, a circular oculus frames the sky—and on clear nights, outlines Orion's Belt. The span is vast, the gesture minimal, the message clear: Concrete can be lightweight. White steel cantilevers lift the s... More

Although the venue had previously built a collection of basic structures to provide shelter, the rudimentary layou... More

Few walls and a Roof

The image of a modern office is thinly partitioned open workstations with limited or no privacy, designed with a one-size-fits-all layout. Even with overlapping DNA, no two individuals are truly alike in a family, similarly, individuals in a work family function in their own separate ways. Nonetheless, in both cases, a designer caters to the sum and the parts, as we did for the sales office of an upcoming residential infrastructure project in Ahmedabad - Few Walls and a Roof.  Vivek Eadara Vivek Eadara Each space, a bit disjoined from the other, is designed to be adaptable and to suit an individual’s requirements. The scattered cubes in the layout give individuals those intimate spaces and the meandering pathways and t... More
