Brick Corner Window Detail



Architect:?
Image Source:Brick Construction Manual

I'm sorry, I don't have the name of the architect for this project. I'm more interested in how the corner window was structurally delt with.

The Brick Construction Manual is the single most complete book I've come across that deals both with design and construction using brick masonry. Check your local architecture school library.

Mezzanine - 1st year project

SUMMER RESIDENCE: 700 square feet.

Note: there are some modifications between initial concept (above), and structural design (below), but essentially the project is about 'light' and 'ascent' through space.
