FACADE IDENTITY.

The transitory accommodation takes on ideas of durability, robustness and firmness such as those seen in the existing grain silos. On the other hand, the warehouse is comprised of lighter materials, a flexible grid structure and a maintained facade. New features to this structure would replicate these same characteristics.

Expressing the endurance methodologies that these buildings use will celebrate the ambition that these structures have and their place in society. Allowing the robust materials to weather, patinate and season will expose the longevity of the material. It will represent the time that the material has endured for.

On the contrary, the materials of the warehouse will be maintained or replaced overtime as their durability is not meant to match that of the silos and transitory accommodation. The newer, cleaner and unblemished appearing materials will embody this approach.
