Structural differentiation (gradient alteration as illustrated in the plan sketch) through local expansion of truss members into a spatial organisation. This allow another optimisation of the structural concept, following the visual expression and introducing thermal buffer zones in the centre of the building. The spatial structure is thus providing thermal advantages along with the improved structural performance. It further enables a natural implementation of the Trombe Wall concept as illustrated in the drawing through encapsulating solar energy in the zone created from the spatial truss grid.
