671 Harrison is a ground up five story commercial building located in

SOMA, San Francisco. More than 6,500 square feet of office space was
designed for the VA into this tiny lot, measuring only 20 feet by 80 feet.

The front-most portion of the building cantilevers over the sidewalk with an obtuse angle. This angle creates a visual tension with the surrounding a five-story metal framed element that cants out from the face of the building.  Custom metal panels lap the framed element with two tones, which wrap into the recessed entry at the ground floor.

A rhythm is created on the street facing elevation with offset floating
perforated metal balconies and a pattern of obscured glass in the storefront
system.
