An interesting aspect, and possibly unintended consequence,
of the raised concrete beam is its framing of the surroundings.
Depending on the visitor's proximity to the structure, a short,
wide sliver of space is visible between the beam and the plaza
surface, and with the dull gray of both the view beyond is
emphasized, gaining importance through the visitor's experience.
Much like sculpture changes in relation to the viewer, the
context is changed by the building's presence and the visitor's
relation to it.
