Modification of panoramic windows
Storyboard
Due to a construction error, only one division was installed in the panoramic windows, whereas initially three were planned for each segment. Upon observing the wide view that this created and realizing that one support was sufficient, the design was modified to include only one division.

Keeping an error
Description
When installing the panels for the living room windows, only one support bar was mounted.
Upon discovering that two additional bars were missing to provide adequate support, it was noted how the panoramic effect was lost:
To assess the situation, the effect of the window frames was studied.

Frame effect
Description
When drawing the frames as originally planned:
it can be seen how the panoramic effect is lost, while with a single support it is maintained:
Therefore, it is necessary to study the feasibility of supporting the roof with a single support.

Review of the load
Description
If the change is made and two support bars are removed, the load is carried by the central bar and the two bars that border each frame (excluding those at the corners). In a normal wall, there are also three bars (plus the corner ones), but these support the load evenly. Therefore, as long as the elements above and below the frame function as a beam that redistributes the load, the replacement should be feasible.
Additionally, the fact that the walls of the windows do not support the mezzanine floor helps reduce the load, making the removal of the two additional support beams viable.
In summary, the error ends up improving the design, creating true panoramic windows.

Exterior appearance
Description
The change also leads to a variation in the external appearance. Instead of having 12 small windows:
it shifts to a design with 6 large windows:
This gives it a lighter and more elegant look.
