Structural Skin: The Envelope as Structure and Shading

Design a building where the exterior skin simultaneously functions as structure, shading device, and spatial organizer. Use layered timber networks and recursive geometric patterns inspired by Kengo Kuma. A deep timber lattice skin carrying the floor loads while shading the glazing behind, the pattern subdividing recursively at different scales, interior spaces defined by the density of the skin rather than by walls, striped shadows inside, eye-level composition, 35mm lens, ultra photorealistic, 8K
