Rising Masses, a year‐long final design thesis undertaken at the Architectural Association (AA) School of Architecture, is for a high‐rise building in the centre of Singapore's financial district. It is characterised by an extreme thinness that is intended to heighten the experience of working in such a dense urban context. As Max Kahlen of Dyvik & Kahlen, Architecture, explains, two mathematical‐based methods were employed in order to aid the design of such a thin structure. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
