“盒子”（Box）是一種介入結(jié)構(gòu)，是對卡弗爾市國家大道上現(xiàn)有倉庫的組織和結(jié)構(gòu)的補(bǔ)充。“盒子”有三個概念部分。第一個是位于現(xiàn)有倉庫建筑一層的圓柱形接待區(qū)，垂直延伸，與單層桁架支撐的屋頂相交。實(shí)體屋頂?shù)牟糠衷旒芪蓓斀Y(jié)構(gòu)被圓柱體包圍，現(xiàn)已被移除并采用玻璃進(jìn)行替代。圓柱體位于國家大道的一個新前門附近，圓柱體內(nèi)部和周圍空間成為接待區(qū)。在接待區(qū)圓柱體內(nèi)部的一堵新墻后面，一個新的外部樓梯通向二層屋頂平臺，支撐在原來的桁架系統(tǒng)下面，并懸掛在圓柱體上，該圓柱體上原來的屋頂已被拆除。新甲板與屋頂圓柱形切口之間的空間采用了玻璃窗，使得接待區(qū)能夠充分照射陽光。在第二層和第三層兩個額外的外部樓梯拐彎處，樓梯就變成了內(nèi)部樓梯，并與通向第三層的內(nèi)部樓梯相連。

“盒子”本身采用鋼腿吊起，鋼腿傾斜形成了會議室地板的支撐梁。橫梁被定位為兩個平面，在平面中交叉成X形，在兩個橫梁的腹板上有一個球形切口，以便為在開放式二樓辦公桌上的人員提供空間，該辦公桌位于“盒子”下方，接待區(qū)上方?！昂凶印彼坪踉谝粋€鋼球上滾動。

The Box is an intervention, an addition which modifies the organization and structure of an existing warehouse on National Boulevard in Culver City.The Box has three conceptual parts.The first is a cylindrical reception area located on the ground floor of the existing warehouse building, extending vertically to intersect the one-story, truss supported roof.The solid roof over the portion of the original truss roof structure, encircled within the cylinder, is removed and replaced with glass.The cylinder is positioned near a new front door from National Boulevard, and the space in and around the cylinder becomes a reception area.Behind a new wall just inside the cylinder in the reception space, a new,exterior stair leads to a second level roof deck, supported on the original truss system below, and suspended over the cylinder where the original roof was removed.The space between the new deck and the cylindrical incision in the roof is glazed, bringing natural light to the reception area.Up two additional turns of the exterior stair, halfway between levels two and three, the stairway becomes internal, and connects with an interior stair which leads up into the third floor Box itself.

The Box itself is lifted on steel legs which lean to form the conference room floor support beams.The beams are positioned as two planes that cross as an X in plan, with a spherical cut-out in the webs of the two beams in order to provide clearance for occupants on the open second floor desk below the Box and above the reception space.The Box appears to roll on a steel sphere.
