Liquid design is generated out of sculptural
considerations
All lessons from the past seem to have been
forgotten!
Structure cladding components require an
enormous effort
The building technical composition is to be
developed simultaneously with the
architectural concept
An extremely high degree of collaboration
between all building parties concerned is
necessary for a successful building team.
