Lots going on here of interest. The projecting window frames coming through solid walls and window walls alike, the clerestory windows above the low roof, and the unashamed display of basic construction materials.

Two things going on here that are interesting. The play of big box bay windows and recessed balcony. And the sprinkling of smaller rectangular windows.

Gion A. Caminada - Multi-purpose hall, Vrin 2003. Via. I’d like to devote a longer, more in depth post to Caminada in the future, who has been living and practicing in the same small Swiss town (population ~300) for his career, and whose work consists of a fascinating evolution of older, more traditional building techniques that are necessitated by the region’s harsh climate.
The swoopy curved walls of this house are cool, yes, but what we are coveting are the ribbon windows of box bays pushing through the skin.

I like the way this box bay is the only violation in this monolithic wall.
