The Bauhaus was the most influential modernist art school of the 20th century. Its emphasis was to unite art and industrial design by combining fine art and craftsmanship. It exposes the mentalities of “truth to materials,” “less is more,” and “form follows function.” It was focused on using new modern materials and simple shapes to create beautifully designed and functional buildings, sculptures, and furniture with a focus on mass production.


PROJECT CHALLENGES

Bauhaus presented a very unique logistical challenge as the site was land locked on three sides and had vehicular access only off of King Street East which contains overhead infrastructure for streetcars. To deal with this, a large staging slab was constructed prior to the excavation of the 4 level underground to allow the tower crane to be erected from within the site perimeter prior to the tower rising 32 stories into the skyline. Our team worked with the structural engineer to develop a solution where the staging slab, including it’s steel vertical supports, were 100% part of the permanent building structure. This ensured maximum efficiency with regard to the construction timeline as there was no time spent building and demolishing temporary structures.
