Construction in the building life cycle prohibits social interaction. My team designed the proposed structures to activate the community around the dead space. A sustainable city begins at the construction site. Construction and repair of a building is necessary to continue its use.
People visit broad range of places temporarily these days, and the impression of the construction sites should be improved. We suggest a steel unit frame system that varies according to the site’s purpose. The frame unit will be a piece of furniture, stairs, a slab, or a window.
