Introduction
Hugh Dutton Associates is a specialist design company formed in 1995, based in Paris, France. HDA comprises a team of architects and engineers providing specialist design services. Our work strives to provide design that is a synthesis of poetic intent and physical reality. Each project, big or small, varying from long span structures down to a small fixing detail, begins with a clear architectural idea with its own specific story to tell. The successful realization of the idea is dependent on a thorough understanding of technical constraints. The studio experienced team of designers from diverse backgrounds specialize in works of complex geometry, innovative structures, 3D CAD, graphic design, 3D imaging, engineering and detail design. HDA work as independent architects, design consultants, and in collaboration with other architects.

( Hugh Dutton biographical note ) Hugh Dutton qualified as an architect at the Architectural Association in London, after preliminary training at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. In search of complementary technical expertise he began his professional career with Peter Rice, a renowned inventive engineer responsible for the Syndey Opera house and Pompidou Center. Rice’s newly formed Paris Company RFR, including Martin Francis (Designer and Naval Architect) and Ian Ritchie (Architect), sought consciously to muddle the traditional boundaries between the architectural and engineering cultures of building professions toward an objective of an integral and holistic approach to design. His early years included experience at Norman Foster (Carré d’art in Nimes and Stansted Airport). Hugh Dutton collaborated closely with Peter Rice for 13 years at RFR, and related their experiences of the development of bolted structural glass and cable structures at the La Villette Science museum in a joint publication entitled Structural Glass. Wishing to take the design approach beyond modern steel and glass, Hugh Dutton, worked with Rice in his later years on developments in stone for it’s structural potential and translucent qualities with work on the Seville Expo 92 stone structure Universal Pavilion as well as the translucent west front of the Cathedral de Notre Dame de la Treille in Lille. At HDA, given his background of technical expertise, Hugh Dutton continues his exploration of design and built reality, having collaborated with many well known architects and designers (Andreu, Architectonica, Bellini, Heatherwick, Nouvel, Ricciotti, Saee, SOM, Tschumi, Wong & Ouyang & others) assisting them on the realization of their concepts with a notable attention to detail. The practice has discreetly collaborated on many now well known European projects such as the Drugstore Publicis glass screens, the New Acropolis Museum in Athens, the Louvre Museum Islamic Arts and Philharmonie de Paris at LaVillette. He has worked as a specialist designer in Asia, having realized the superstructure and façade designs of Airports Changi (T2 & 3) and Korea’s Incheon main terminal, the Osaka maritime museum, and Singapore’s Lasalle school of art. Much current work is with Swire Properties in Hong Kong, where HDA assist the project team with specialist design items for signature items at Pacific Place and Island East, as well as on ther mainland china developments in Beijing and Guangzhou.

Where the opportunities arise, HDA are design architects for specialist items, such as the competition winning design for the 2006 winter Olimpics footbridge in Turin, and current work includes other footbridges, electricity pylons, a private home, a café and courtyard canopy and commercial façade refit...
Introduction
HDA’s design for high tension electricity pylons was the winning entry in a competition held by Terna in Italy. Terna is a private national electricity provider that is undergoing a phased modernizing of their 60000km network. Their programme has a notable economical and ecological outlook and the brief invited the competitors to specifically address these issues. In the phase concerned by the competition, Terna’s objective is to reduce the length of a line supplying Rome from 1200km to 800km, by modernizing it with more efficient equipment. Terna are very conscious of the image of their lines in the public eye and in the natural landscape, and they wish to improve the environmental impact of the pylons on the landscape. Though the new pylons will cost about 3 times more than the existing ones, the reduced amount of electric lines will mean an overall cost saving. The public image is considered important enough to validate the cost of the design and that it is justifiable in considering the whole operation. HDA’s design response is based on changing the current ‘industrial soldier’ image of today’s pylons. This is done primarily by creating an elegant shape whose form is inspired by nature, instead of the more typical galvanized trellises, and secondly by what we call ‘dancing with nature’, whereby the pylons lean and swerve in response to the topography. They find a structural equilibrium by leaning into the curve of the electric cables as they follow the constraints of the landscape. In order to avoid repetitive standardization, the design uses parametric analysis and numerical tools to manageably create an individual design for each pylon, so it can respond to the specific criteria and parameters of its location.

Architect Odile Decq appointed HDA as specialist façade design consultants for a curved glass screen wall for a new restaurant in the East Portico of the Palais Garnier Opera building in the heart of Paris. The Palais Garnier is a classic Paris icon created at the peak of the Beaux Arts school of design in the latter part of the 19th century and as such is an untouchable monument. Decq’s design involves a variable curved wall 8.5meters high that provides weather protection for the restaurant with a minimal visual impact on the building. The strategy allows a bold modern statement, but in total respect of the massive stone monument. HDA developed the detail design of the glass screen, using a complete finite element calculation model and developed the details for the glass connections and the entrance doors. The technical design approach exploits the inherent geometric stability of the curved surfaces so as to minimize the required supports and maximize the transparency.

Raymond Woo architects selected HDA as specialist design consultants for the facades of a new development on Orchard Road for the Ngee Ann City development company.. Orchard road is a vibrant shopping street, Singapore’s Champs ElysÊes. Architecture of recent buildings on the street strives to compete in the competitive commercial context, each building trying to be more remarkable than its predecessors. In response to a programme of shops and restaurants proposes the proposed design an alternative concept of calm transparency. The tenant shops are clearly visible from the street and provide animation through all glass facades. Three successive glass boxes rise up one above the other, each one set back slightly from the other. The lowest one opens onto the street providing a central atrium for the building. The two higher ones provide restaurant spaces. The lateral facades are also clad in glass, providing transparency for the shopping facilities on all levels. The boxes are realised in a slender grid of stainless steel extruded profiles, braced with a 3D cable net system in the form of a tree. The 20m span roof members exploit the cable system for the required inertia. The facades are braced with a series of vertical cables and horizontal counter cables. This mesh of cables are prestressed by the cable tree to provide stiffness and stability against wind pressure. HDA developed a formfinding program to define the cable net geometry. The façade grids extend down to street level and curl outwards to form an entrance canopy. Glazing products are printed to a variable pattern and include roof-top grillage panels that provide additional solar protection as well as providing maintenance platforms. The lateral facades are in a double skin system using vertical glass fins. The double skin is equipped with roller blinds between the two glass surfaces to absorb solar energy.

This 50000m² extension of the existing hall that faces Hong Kong harbor, is an attempt to minimize the impact of the intervention on this historic view of the city with a building that is as ecologically responsible as is technically possible. The design includes a series of generally planted ramps that connect the new facility to a future waterfront park to blurr the frontier with the green spaces. The massive arena space, is covered in a delicate gridshell structure that combines solar collection tubes and fabric shading. This roofing complex generates an enormous quantity of heat energy, that when converted into cool and dehumidification, provides a substantial part of the air conditioning requirements for the building.

The medieval cloister Dewailly in Amiens today houses administrative services of the town hall. The city held a competition to transform the ground floor and courtyard into a polyvalent exhibition and event space, whilst the upper floor remained municipal offices. HDA, in collaboration with historical monument specialists H20, proposed a this floating cushion on slender columns in the center of the space, such as to leave the first floor windows un obstructed. The cushion is a mesh of steel blades variably spaced to filter natural light, whilst simultaneously responding to the stuctural bending requirements.

Swire Properties’ Jiang Tai development in Beijing consists of a shopping center and a 5 hectare park. HDA designed a 7000m² wintergarden that acts as a transitional zone between the shopping center and the park. The Wintergarden consists of a wavy gridshell mesh roof with a generous canopy creating a fluid gesture toward the park. The canopy edge rests on a line of slender vertical columns that carry a cable net facade maximising the transparent interface with the park. The roof mesh is a composition of triangular modules of glass panels, whose composition follows the same fluid movement of the roof wave toward the park. The glazing panels include sun treatment and louvers to create a soft light and shading patterns.

The La Villette area in the north east 19th district of Paris has been transformed from a slaughterhouse area to a large park that includes public facilities for science, music and exhibitions over the past 20 years. The newest addition is the Jean Nouvel’s competition winning design for the Philharmonic concert hall. Nouvel’s design is an extremely complex shape, consisting of two basic façade and cladding surface types: an angular external carapace enclosing a soft fluid shape surrounding the main hall foyer. Both are metallic, the carapace in cast aluminium and foyer façade in fluid stainless steel baptized the ‘Tourbillon’. For the external carapace the cladding system is based on a series of complex interlocking tiles, reminiscent of bird forms. The fluid metallic tourbillon portion consists of panels fixed to three dimensional structural systems to follow the complex curved shape. HDA are appointed as consultants to assist the Nouvel design team in the technical realisation of these cladding surfaces. The work involves research into buildable three dimensionally curved geometries and construction systems.

In the heart of Jamaica’s capital city, a central area of urban redevelopment ‘New Kingston’ consists of a series of small office blocks and commercial buildings created in the 60’s and 70’s. One of the prominent developers of the area Pan Jamaican Properties, invited HDA to develop design concepts for a central courtyard. The court is surrounded by an 8 storey office building, a two level commercial building and a 3 level parking block. The courtyard is currently dominated by an air conditioning cooling facility. The brief is to transform the space from a left-over back of house condition to a pleasant environment to include a café and some small shops and services facilities to animate the space. The design proposal uses fluid shapes in tensile fabric to soften the hard edges of the existing buildings and to provide an architectural unity to the space. The café is strategically placed to mask the air cooling units. Vegetation is abundantly proposed to bring a natural garden character to the courtyard. The planting surrounds a central pool on two levels with a gentle waterfall to create a soft noise to offset the traffic and cooling fan disturbance. All materials used in the courtyard, apart from the tensile membrane, are local materials such as limestone, ceramics and timber. The proposal attempts to create a quiet space of tranquillity, an oasis in the heart of the bustling tropical city.

In the medieval heart of Chambery, developer Virgil are transforming the disused ‘Halles’ building into a shopping and multiplex facility. The existing building is a listed building done by pioneering concrete engineer Auguste Perret, with a characteristic concrete canopy on the main façade. This canopy is extended and a clear glass shop-window inserted beneath it. The lateral facades of the new cinema extension conceal escalator acces and waiting balconies as well as in some cases projection rooms. Such diverse program constraints on these facades facing the medieval context are reconciled by using a variably opaque, translucent or transparent treatment. This is achieved by a panel system that alternates monolithic stone, stone/glass laminates or transparent coloured interlayer film in standard unitized aluminium façade modules.

The program for the extension of the TGV network in southern France includes a passage through the town of la Roche sur Yon. The town is modernizing the train station and replacing an 1890’s footbridge over the railway tracks. The distinctive design of this old bridge consists of riveted diagonals creating guard rail beams. In collaboration with Bernard Tschumi, HDA were commissioned as architects for the design and engineering of the new footbridge. The town is separated by the railway tracks into two parts: the historical central neighborhood, which contains the ‘Pentagon’ planned by Napoleon on one side and it’s contemporary counterpart with its modern facilities (stadium, school and residential zones)one the other. The ambition of the town, is not only to create a symbolic link between the two neighborhoods, but equally to celebrate the arrival of the TGV. La Roche sur Yon is the birthplace of Robert le Ricolais, engineer, architect, poet and painter, known for his theoretical research on trellis structures and tensegrity during the 1950’s. This heritage, both intellectual and historical, has inspired the design of the footbridge. The diagonal tube lattice design recalls the existing footbridge and expresses the passage of forces in the work. At support points, the stresses are mainly shear, in the predominantly vertical direction, and at mid-span, the stresses become principally bending and the direction tends towards the horizontal. The natures of the forces are highlighted by ‘T’ section profiles for compression and simple rod ties for those in tension. The result is a harmonious geometrid composition and which expresses the natural forces within.

The historical Louvre Museum is expanding its collection and exhibition space to include a new Islamic Arts department. A public competition was won by a partnership between architects Bellini and Ricciotti. The new facility includes a covered exhibit space in the Visconti courtyard on the south wing of the museum. HDA are retained as specialist designers of the courtyard glass roof and facades including structural analysis and envelope design. The roof is a free-form topography composed of triangular glass modules on a steel grid shell. Metal grilles with an iridescent coating are added for solar protection and light filtering. More mesh panels are used for the ceiling to soften the effect of the roof, whilst still permitting glimpses of the surrounding courtyard facades. The resulting design is a soft luminous wavy surface, with a sublte play of light and transparency.

Swire properties’ developments at the eastern end of Hong Kong Island are separated from the harbour by undeveloped open areas currently used as government storage and refuse treatment. The company proposed to develop the area into an arts centre and park for public use. A busy access road to the under harbour tunnel cuts off the future park area from the densely populated office and housing developed managed by Swire. HDA were commissioned as specialist designers to study a footbridge connection over the road. The brief included the creation of a signal to create a focus of attention to the future arts centre activities. The proposed cable stayed design involves a 40m high mast steel tube from which a simple 4m wide steel deck is suspended. The mast is fabricated from steel plate with perforations whose density gradually change as a function of the forces in the mast, from solid at the highly loaded base to a delicate filigree at the head where the loads are smallest. The perforations also assist in aerodynamic behaviour of the mast to avoid aeroelastic excitation by creating turbulent air flow as well as reduce mass where it is not required. The filigree pattern creates visual interest and is a support for architectural lighting. The deck is suspended with a fan array of cables that support the deck at optimal points to avoid torsional loading and simplify the erection procedures over the roadway.

The main lobby of the Swire Properties’ recently completed office tower, with it’s 20m high three dimensional cable net glazing system, is open to the surrounding public areas at different levels. The new footbridge link connects it to the network of public elevated walkways that cross the busy Queensway road in front of the tower. The covered footbridge is a minimal rectilinear glass tube covering a thin sloping steel caisson deck that links the public bridge level to the upper level of the lobby. The glazing adapts the cable net casting details and modules to express an extension of the lobby itself. The detailing expresses a subtle superposition of the sloping deck with the rectilinear glass enclosure. The design includes a discreet integration of air conditioning and lighting services. HDA are specialist design consultants to Swire Properties providing conceptual design including structural analysis and detail development of the glazing components.

Pacific Place, in the heart of the central district of Hong Kong comprises four mixed use towers with hotel, office and service apartments atop a shopping mall plinth. It was constructed by Swire Properties in the late 1980’s with the architects Wong and Ouyang and became an icon of modern shopping and Hong Kong urban culture. Swire have engaged London based designer Thomas Heatherwick to contemporise the mall, so that it can adapt to current fashion trends and public demands. In addition to internal facilities upgrading, the project involves the creation of a new restaurant on the vehicle access level, a continuous canopy providing pedestrian links between the different towers as well as a new footbridge to link the mall to future harbour front developments. The Heatherwick studio design is based on the concept of sinuous vertical ribbons, inspired by the distinct curvilinear character of the existing mall. For the restaurant roof the ribbon steel blades one arranged as terraces constituting a shell structure for the roof and become glazing supports for the peripheral canopy. HDA are specialist design consultants to Swire Properties providing conceptual technical design assistance to the Heatherwick studio including structural analysis and detail development of the structural and glazing components. ¬¬ Steel Blades 3D Model and Displacements Analysis

Architect Nicolas Michelin won an architectural competition for a footbridge and access ramps that spans the A86 motorway and ancillary garden landscaping at each end. The structural design is based on the objective of architectural discretion with the modularity of a garden trellis. The diagonal members of the trellis supporting beams vary as a function of the differing directions of forces in them, and the geometric configurations of each spanning section. HDA proposed the creation of a pillar on the central reservation, cutting the 42m span down to 2 shorter lengths, this permits an optimal visual lightness, economic benefits and uniformity of structure. HDA carried out the engineering design of the metal structure, including the structural analysis, structural calculations and drawings. HDA’s mission also included the approval of contractors’ drawings and site supervision.

Swire Properties 300m office tower at Island East is an extension of their existing Taikoo Place development. HDA are specialist consultant’s to design the lobby glazing, deck, canopy and a footbridge link with adjacent properties. Tapered glass fins are suspended from the ceiling slab and supported at the suspended floor level on a stainless steel facade truss. All steel hardware used to support the glass is in high grade stainless steel castings or extrusions to achieve a unique language of pieces and components. The suspended fins stop above eye level, being cantilevered from the facade truss such that optimal transparency and simplicity is achieved at the ground floor. The link bridge is a simple tubular steel truss with hight strength tension tie diagonals, whose deck is a continuation of the suspended lobby deck. The entire bridge is clad in a glass skin, using a continuation of the typical lobby facade fin system with adaptations on the roof for solar shading using louvres and fritting such that users can view the tower above them as they approach whilst providing the necessary protection.

On the One Island East development, a freestanding canopy on the north east face of the Swire Properties new tower signals the entrance to the building as well as providing protection for people arriving in vehicles at the main door. The canopy, whilst remaining consistent to the construction typologies of tubes and fins for contextual coherence, makes a strong sculptural statement. HDA’s design is inspired by the new tower’s introduction of curves into the Taikoo Place development. It uses circular section tubes as the main structural element as they are the only visible steel structure elsewhere in Taikoo Place, notably in several existing footbridge links. The glass roof is supported on fins, again remaining within a language already strongly present in the surrounding context. Each tube is realised in large 500mm diameter pipe, with tapered tips, and each one curved within a two dimensional plane. The array of six tubes, crisscrossing and interwoven with each other, provide a strong cantilever base for the glass fin cover. The fins are each independently and isostatically supported on small struts with articulated bearings such that deflections of the tubes in strong gusting winds do not bring large loads to bear on the glass fins and surface glass. Together they perform much as fish scales do, remaining rigid in plane individually but all permitting free movement of their supports. The roof surface glass is fitted to the upper edge of the fins with aluminium extrusion and is fritted to diffuse nocturnal lighting.

The new Lasalle College of the Arts, consists of 6 independent buildings, with a central pedestrian coutryard and lateral passageways, all of which are covered by a fabric roof. HDA were commissioned to design the interior and exterior facades along with a roof cover for the central courtyard initially foreseen in glass. HDA proposed a tensioned fabric solution for the roof, in order to maximise the daytime clarity of the fabric, while providing protection against the direct sunlight on the facades and the internal public spaces. The internal courtyard facades are irregular by design, with the facets of the glass creating a reminder of naturally eroded canyons. The external facades are, however, rectilinear, aligned with the streets of the urban context, much like a protective shell. The roof system uses PTFE fabric for the central courtyard and the lateral passages. The internal facades are in clear laminated glass on a steel structure. Despite there appearance of total irregularity, the geometrical layout of the façade developed by HDA, consists of trapezoidal modules, repeated and handed in order to optimise the cost of the project. The cladding of the external facades is a composition of light aluminium panels and natural stone.

The St. George shopping centre in central Toulouse was renovated by the architects Guerin Pedroza and Jean Pierre Buffi. One of the principal entrances onto rue Carnot is celebrated by a complex structure of two eliptical cones with infill panels of glass. The external cone forms a base from which the interior cone and the infill glass panels are suspended. The transparent cladding of the exterior cone allows a filtered vision of the structure and the interior cone. This ‘urban facade’ of the exterior cone is clad in a mesh of perforated stainless steel panels. The interior cone is clad in copper coloured cladding. The infill glass panels use tirangular profiles suspended from ring beams which follow the curves of the eliptical cones. The panes of glass rest on EPDM rubber profiles on the triangular profiles.

The architects Jean Pierre Buffi and Philippe de Fouchier were commissioned to re-develop the Grand Bazar of Lyon. HDA developed, for the team of architects, the design for a suspended, inclined façade according to their objectives of maximum transparency. The inclination of the façade diminishes reflections and optimises the transparency. The glazing is fixed to patches suspended from steel rods. The wind loadings on the façade are transferred to a wind loaded beam constructed of horizontal metal blades, which recall the blades of the curtain wall of the upper storeys.

«Every great event can be summed up by an emblem and a powerful symbol that identifies it. Performing this function for Turin and the XX Winter Olympics is the imposing, futuristic red arch of the pedestrian bridge connecting Lingotto to the former General Market. It is a symbol that along with many others, changes the city skyline, but also stands for the larger process of renewal that the city had embarked on.» Sergio Champarino Mayor of Turin The parabolic arch, whose inspiration is found in the concrete arches of the existing Mercati halls, thereby linking the design to it’s context. The leaning arch, the curving deck and the virtual spaces created by the cables radiating as spokes from the deck to the arch all create drama and excitement. The bridge design is a symbiosis of engineering and architecture. The architectural composition finds it’s logic in structural expression. The forces are clearly expressed in the dynamism of the architectural composition. We understand of the passage of forces through the deck, cables and arch to the foundations. Aesthetic pleasure can be found in feeling the athletic dynamism of structure. This is a fitting and appropriate approach for a monument to the Olympic games.

The return of the Parthenon Marbles, removed by Lord Elgin, has long been a strong ambition of Greece, and a competition was held to design a new home for them at the foot of the Acropolis. Bernard Tschumi’s winning design proposed a rooftop gallery in glass to the exact proportions of the Parthenon itself, that would put the marbles in their original context but protected from the elements. HDA were commissioned by the Greek Ministry of Culture to assist in the technical design for the glass envelope with the challenge to find the best possible solution to the fundamentally contradictory objectives of optimal transparency and maximum solar protection. The resulting design incorporates high performance coated glazing products and a double skin that includes shading screens for the most exposed elevations. Low iron glass is used to maximize light colour integrity and black fritting is provided for complementary glare protection. HDA’s appointment included design of all other glass components in the museum such as the lower level archaic gallery facade in tall glass fins, balustrades, skylights and glass floors that allow views down to excavations below the beneath the floor slabs.

Changi Airport is the front door of Singapore, and the facility is continuously modernized in the image of the garden city state itself. Changi has for many years been voted the world’s best airport in user surveys, and is anxious to remain top with respect to other massive airport modernization projects, such as Osaka’s Kansai, and Hong Kong’s Chep Lap Kok. The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) is expanding the airport with both an ambitious new terminal T3 and an extensive upgrading of existing T2. The HDA practice were appointed by CAAS on the T2 refit with a further 20000m², with Gensler of San Francisco, in collaboration with the local architects RSP with the notable departure hall leaf canopies and cantilevering glass fins. The Gensler design concept is based on a bold expression of glass through a series of large glass canopies, a new departure hall ceiling and a new airside extension façade as well as a general interior refit of the building. The glass elements are exploited to animate the terminal with both natural and artificial light making extensive use of fritted, translucent and etched glass. The extensive use of glass involves careful consideration of glare and local OTTV energy issues in the context of the strong sun of Singapore. The land-side canopies use fritting and translucent glass to provide both a diffuse light source for departure drop - off zone as well as shading for the adjacent check in areas. The glass fin braced landside façades give glass a structural expression with 5 m cantilevering fins and patch supported glass using cast fittings. The airside extension façade, giving a direct view to the apron uses bowstring mullions to minimize structure and provide support for sun shade louvers.

For Singapore’s Terminal 3 expansion of the Changi Airport, CAAS, the Singapore airport authority, appointed HDA to assist them in developing the facades of the airport. Local architects CPG’s initial concept for the terminal building, developed with SOM of New York, called for a cable wall for the main landside departure level entrance facade that should be as ephemeral and visually light as possible. A two dimensional net of prestressed cables spanning 18m vertically from concrete floor to roof truss and 15m horizontally between the columns. Laminated tempered and heatstrengthened glass is minimally fixed to this array of cables to provide a discreet and optimally transparent glass plane. The typical facades of the building are double glazed panels supported in a uniform 2 way grid of steel framing. The mullions, varying between 6 and 18 metres high are assisted by tension rods to increase their inertia for the larger spans. The tension rod system is exploited as a support for sun shading louvers. The response to local design conditions in Singapore’s unique equatorial climactic involves critical solar protection for this entirely air-conditioned building taking into account specific sun angles using frit, high performance coatings, tints and traditional shading louvers.

Jean-Pierre Buffi was approached by the city of Turin to provide a design for the heating facility that would integrate it into the urban context of Italy’s main industrial city. HDA developed with the architect’s office a series of light curved screens to ‘clothe’ the facility. The screens consist of toroidal shells where the individual arcs are stiffened with cable trusses. The cable curves provide a line of support for metal cladding strips that are warped to give them local stiffness. The metal cladding strips are in a copper coloured stainless steel arranged to allow gaps for a glimpse through to the facility for the public. The dominant element of the facility is a 20 m chimney that is supported on a cigar shaped tube formed from interlocking spirals of steel tube. Four independent flues are suspended from the summit of the tube.

Architect Michele Saee, of BUILDING Inc., Los Angeles won a limited design competition , for the well-known ‘Drugstore’ Café, cinema, news-shop facility whose prime location on the Champs Elysées adjacent to the ‘Arc de Triomphe’ makes it one of Paris’ key landmarks in itself. The existing building replacing the original Publicis building destroyed by fire in the early 70’s, is a classic early curtain-wall facade in bronze reflective glass. Saee’s concept of bringing a new image to the building that houses the Publicis Group’s headquarters involves a complex series of transparent, curved glass screens that revitalise the existing façade. The new veil is completely free-form without any orthogonal components or straight lines as a complementary contrast to the 70’s façade behind. HDA developed a structural system for the screens based on sinuous primary tubes spanning 10m between the main columns. Secondary extruded stainless steel curved ‘sabres’ support for curved annealed laminated glass using structural silicone. The geometrical and constructive concept for the work involves the strict mathematical definition of the glass surfaces according to developable cylindrical, conical or toroidal forms for the critical interface with their ‘sabre’ structural supports. In addition to the main 15m high façade screens, the project includes a sculptural piece marking the principal corner entrance to the building as well as café terrace shelters and shopfront glazing.

Pacific Place Three, a 40 storey office tower, is a recent addition to Swire Properties shopping and office complex located on the frontier between the central commercial office/ administration district and the more popularist Wan Chai community. The podium at the base is characterised by maximum openness and transparency such that the tower integrates itself with the surrounding small scale context. The situation inspired the design with the theme of openness, transparency and high quality innovation, to respond to the dual objective of small scale integration and a grade A office tower. The typical facades of this offices are in high performance solar protection/low-e coated glass and the entrance podium level is in a 3D cable net and point fixed glass. HDA assisted Swire Properties as consultants to consider options for the typical facades, develop the concept and geometry for the podium glazing, as well as assist the design team and contractor as a specialist consultant for the design of glazing component details and structural performance during the contractor design development phase.

Claude Vasconi’s competition- winning design for the complete re-development of the Chmber of Commerce’s office and training facility involved an all glass façade. Vasconi’s search for a ‘crystal’ appearance required a particular study to bring it to conformity with Luxembourg’s strict energy regulations and the client’s concern for energy consumption. Vasconi’s façade design was developed by HDA in conjunction with Basler energy consultants of Switzerland and RMC, HVAC engineers from Luxembourg using a coordinated approach of solar collectors, heat exchangers and high performance glass. Largely decorative ‘brise soleils’ contribute a certain degree to local shading. The façade is a unitised curtain- wall using krypton-filled units with opening windows and decorative fritted panels.

Oxford House is designed with a series of elegant and transparent lightweight tension trusses that support glass walls and skylights. The tension trusses are constructed from stainless steel rods and castings. The trusses are un-braced to achieve a simple expression of structure to resist wind forces. This structural configuration is stable under uniform loading. When non-uniform wind pressures areconsidered the tension trusses take up a configuration, which is determined by using non-linear large theory deformation analysis. The glass fixings are connected to the tension trusses using carefully detailed bolted ball connectors to ensure the trusses carry wind loading without transferring local bending moments to the glass. The glass provides lateral stability to the tension trusses and at the same time it is articulated in a manner which enables the glass to float. The movement of the glass fixing is carefully arranged to prevent the system from attracting load due to movements of the super-structure. Stainless steel castings are utilized to provide freedom in the shaping of components to suit the articulation of the trusses, to provide moment free connections, and to form special details such as corner junctions and door connectors. Installation procedures incorporate adjustment devices to allow the walls to be accurately set out. Provisions are also made for long term monitoring of the pretension trusses either by manual means or by computer monitoring. These monitoring provisions are very important due to the significance that pretension plays in maintaining the stability of the trusses.

PEDESTRIAN FOOTBRIDGE HDA assisted the architect Bernard Tschumi with the design of an 80m pedestrian footbridge, consisting of two unequal spans. The architectural intention required that the principal structure was as fine as possible and of a homogenous size. However, with one the span being twice as large as the other, an under tensioning system was added to respect the structural reality. GLASS BOX & LIFT The project included a glass box and a lift tower for the underground metro station. HDA designed the glazing of this tower using a structural glazing system. Alternating glass colours were used to add architectural interest.

The new Seoul International airport, currently under construction, is situated on an artificial island in Inchon bay, to the west of the capital. The ambition of the new airport is similar to that of the other gigantic Asian airports such as Kansai in Osaka, Chep Lap Kok in Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. The main terminal of 473’500m2 will be handling 44 million passengers per year. HDA designed the 5 different types of roof module structures and the facades in collaboration with the the KACI design team architects with assistance from Ove Arup and Partners for the calculations of the steel structures. HDA and OAP prepared concept design reports as well as models of the typical bays, for development by the local architect and ‘engineer of record’ teams into detailed designs. The different roof module types are for the Great Entrance Hall roof, as well as for the concourse ‘Pagoda’ and ‘Antler’ typical and end modules: GREAT ENTRANCE HALL ROOF MODULE The roof curvature in the competition design is exploited for its structural potential as a barrel vault shell. The design was required to remain within existing loading capacities for the support structures. The barrel vault shell spans 98m and each bay is approximately 45m wide. Each vault is stiffened along its two longitudinal edges by an edge truss whose lower chord also performs as a tie to support down loads. ‘PAGODA’ and ‘ANTLER’ ROOF MODULES The KACI competition concept of a suspended roof with a formal virtual reference to the shape of traditional ‘Pagoda’ roofs was developed by HDA. The primary structure is a Vierendeel siesmic frame from which are suspended a series of triangular trusses. The system is restrained against uplift with down-ties equipped with springs.

HDA were specialist design consultants for the facade and steel ramp system between two masonry facades (30m span) of the Lerner Student Center by Bernard Tschumi and Gruzen Samton. The steel trellis ramps are exploited as wind trusses spanning the length of the hall between two blocks of the building. Their dead weight is supported partly by a deep inclined facade truss and partly from the roof. The glass is suspended from articulated point support on the tips of ‘arm’ brackets cantilevering from the ramps. HDA developed the visible metal structure and glass system in collaboration with the architects and engineers Ove Arup New York for the structural steel analysis and adaptation to New York codes.

The Pola museum designed by Koichi Yasuda of Nikken Sekkei houses a private collection of impressionist paintings in the Hakone prefecture forest. HDA were appointed as design consultants to Asahi glass for the glass components of the museum: roadside glass shelters, the main circulation spine skylight and also a light wall running the length of the spine. The roadside shelters announce the theme of glass to the visitor through the use of cantilevering structural glass in an innovative application that exploits surface folds for cantilever action and stiffness. The Spine wall uses low iron cast glass tiles to diffuse the daylight and nocturnal artificial light. The Spine skylight, with it’s inclined face to the roof-top for views to the forest for the public as the enter the museum and descend on the main escalators. It is supported on structural glass fins and includes a translucent ‘ceiling’ that protects users from direct sun radiation while also providing a source of diffuse light.

HDA were awarded a full architectural commission after winning a design competition for this 140m vehicle ramp and general re-thinking of surrounding parking and garden spaces. Two 1000 place parking lots, one on the roof of the exhibition building and another underground, were linked by the steel ramp and a central surveillance pavillion for traffic management with access control barriers is relocated at the entrance of the zone. The parking lots and ramp are situated at the rear of the exhibition park that faces onto a residential zone and the design incorporated the creation of a new image of the park with its new entrance. The ramp is a spine beam with diagonal outriggers that support an edge member onto which concrete pre-cast slabs are laid. Triangular arrays of tube columns hold up the spine providing torsion restraint for unequal loads. Glass shelters protect the access control barriers with ‘tree’ structures whose outrigger ‘branches’ are reminiscent of those on the ramp and braced by tension ties in a tetrahedral geometry. Fritted toughened laminate glass supported on articulated point fixings provides rain shelter as well as a means of diffusing light at night.

For the launch of a new Fiat model, the Topolino, HDA proposed a moveable bridge composed of a series of floating containers. The floats are all connected to an underwater ‘Lazy Tong’ mechanism that transforms them from a cluster on one bank to a bridge across the Po to in fornt of the Murazzi terrasses on the other. The transformation would occurat the moment of the apparition of the new model, allowing it to drive across the bridge to be admired by witing press assembled on the terraces.

A GEM for MEG. The English word for a jewel ‘Something prized because of its beauty or worth. The central pavilion, symbol of the museum of ethnography is kept under glass as a precious object in a large glazed hall. The proposal attempts to remain at a modest scale and compatible with the surrounding urban context, despite the very large volumes of exhibition spaces. The strategy of aesthetic composition for the museum is in response to the series of dualities inherent in the program, such as Private/Public and Ancient/Modern. Such dualities are expressed in the formality of the composition, Rectilinear/ Fluid and Solid/Light. These oppositions are complementary, each highlighting its counterpart. The simple and elegant composition of glass ribbon facade creates sensual curves. These flexible surfaces highlight the rectitude and sobriety of the existing pavilion.

In the history of architecture, man has always sought to reach new heights. Like a symbol of power, of pride, success, steel represents this ambition to build the highest possible structures. The Steel Needle symbolizes and celebrates the ambition and success of this material. It aspires to aim even higher by the powerful beam of light projected in the sky tracing the limits of future heights. The basin of water envisaged at the base of the tower symbolizes a molten steel bath from which the Needle emerges. To celebrate steel, natural colours are favoured. The needle is proposed in a Corten finish, to emphasize rather than to hide its natural colour.

Construction on the Notre Dame de la Treillle began in the 19th century, but was never finished. The architect Pierre Louis Carlier asked artist Ladislas Kijno and engineer Peter Rice to join him in a bid to finish the West Front. Hugh Dutton participated in the design of this last work by the late Peter Rice. Rice’s team proposed an ogival arch to terminate the nave of the cathedral in structural stone from which is stabilised by a tensile system of prestressed cables. Traditionally, the stability of an arch is assured by the mass of the masonry applying a permanent compressive force externally, providing a geometric stability for the voussoirs of the arch. For this project, the arch is stabilised inversely., by the application of a permanent tensile force internally. The infil of the arch, baptised ‘Veronica’s veil’, is in translucent marble. It consists of a suspended net of stainless steel rods, into which are fixed the individual panels of marble. At the centre of the veil is the stained glass rose window by Kijno. The rose window is stabilised by another series of smaller cable trusses tensioned to the perimeter ring.

Japan Bridge is a footbridge that spans 103m across the motorway to the west of La Defense. The footbridge consists of a tied arch and a glass tunnel. The aerodynamic considerations were a very important factor for the project. The layout of the neighbouring buildings leaves the footbridge very susceptible to the Venturi effect. The design is concentrated on the clear expression of the ties. The tunnel of the footbridge is a glazed tube supported on a series of fine ties and it seems to float between the central crossing. Hugh Dutton, in his role as architect in charge at RFR, developed the structural concept with Peter Rice. The concept was refined in the analysis phase, conducted by Pat Dallard of Ove Arup and Partners.

While a student at the Architectural Association in London, Hugh Dutton designed and built this small house. The design is based on the vernacular construction techniques of the island, as well as an ecological approach toward energy – no air conditioning – and landscaping with a minimal disruption to the natural wood. The house is elevated on stilts (re-used telephone poles) to catch the main seabreeze on a wide verandah, from which one can view the ocean. The central living space has a tall void with a ventilated gable to evacuate the warm air, and create natural drafts for ventilation. The ‘service’ program elements (bathrooms, Kitchen store, laundry) are in a masonry block which includes a 10000 gallon cistern to collect and store rainwater. This block provides lateral bracing for the elevated floor framing. The lateral walls are in the traditional ‘wattle and daub’ construction technique, which included boat trips to the nearby reef to collect dry coral to create the lime mortar used for the render. A minimum of glass is used, most windows are simple propped panels of cedar operable louvers with removeable mosquito screen panels. The columns are in re-used ironwood posts, collected from dilapidated ruins of traditional houses as they slowly disappear from the island.
