Structure
I plan to design within the structural constraints,
but the interior walls may be adjusted
as they are not load bearing.

A rectangle form. Made of bricks and concrete
the exterior has rough and worn edges.
Introducing a stronger material for the exterior
is important in maintaining identity.
