Large-Span Timber Structures: Glulam Grids and Exposed Joints

Design a large-span timber building inspired by Shigeru Ban using computationally optimized glue-laminated timber grids, visible steel node connections, transparent facades, organic roof geometries, and structurally expressive detailing that combines engineering precision with material warmth. Sweeping gridshell roof of interlocking laminated timber members, precise steel connectors at every intersection, fully glazed perimeter, warm timber glow against cool daylight, tiny figures for scale, eye-level composition, 24mm tilt-shift lens, architectural photography, ultra photorealistic, 8K
