Structurally, our next iterative step from our reciprocal model does not have drastic deviations. However, within each intersection between the cross structure and floor plates, there is a rigid node. This subtle contraction element greatly enhances the structural integrity. We continued to carry the common motif of the cross structure serving as both a structural element and a means of spatial division. Particularly for horizontal circulation, the cross structures can be envisioned to create spaces of various large and small spaces best served as art gallery rooms.
