Structural design for conventions

I’m ready to move from ideas to visuals for the exterior of my villa.

Show me combinations that reinforce the minimalist aesthetic without sacrificing durability or energy efficiency. Please provide: • An initial concept presentation with sketches or massing studies so we can quickly align on form and proportion ...
