_{“...the graceful arcs of a dancer, create distinct gestures - each frame a unique posture against the canvas of concrete.”}

In the realm of “POST & PUNCH,” the project transcends its traditional bounds, weaving a tapestry of light and shadow through its form. Inspired by the rich narrative of precast concrete in architecture, this design is a ballet of controlled curves and angles, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. These varied gestures or postures of the panels are strategically angled to capture sunlight, making shadows an integral, ever-changing element of the design. This project not only highlights the material’s versatility but also pushes the boundaries of architectural aesthetics, marrying practicality with the beauty of natural light and form.
