In architecture the usual construction accrued in manual knowledge and calculated by engineers is being refined in a culture achievement.
This procedure of transformation obtains the constructive logic, but relieves the perceivable structural element of its concrete purpose. A coherent and descriptive image without revealing its real construction becomes visible.
This increasing relevance of the architectonic element awaits a worthy and reasonable design, which understands the real technical need only as a base and beginning for the form finding process.
Any architectonical structure and space is determined by an useful carry off the loads . The physical conditions of gravity regulate the linear and vertical course of forces, moments and other mechanical influences independently. No other component clarifies this order as vividly as the pillar and its architectonical equivalent the column. The constructive being of architecture finds oneself an unique expression and a symbol.
The column uncloses the structural volume, receives the entering and escorts him into the architectonical space. With an elegant tapering effect it puts itself against the forces, which were gracefully received in the capital.
The refinement and the precision of the details reveals the constructive condition and the real beauty of architecture becomes apparent.
