site visit - car dealership

This is a car dealership on victoria parade in the city that i've noticed a few times but had never really checked out properly. It's a steel, curved truss system that takes advantage of its northern exposure. the building reminds me of a sold-out glen murcutt.

no safety mesh here. who wants to walk on a curved roof anyway?

i think this is quite a beautiful detail.


the camera and the truss.
