“盒子”（Box）是一种介入结构，是对卡弗尔市国家大道上现有仓库的组织和结构的补充。“盒子”有三个概念部分。第一个是位于现有仓库建筑一层的圆柱形接待区，垂直延伸，与单层桁架支撑的屋顶相交。实体屋顶的部分原桁架屋顶结构被圆柱体包围，现已被移除并采用玻璃进行替代。圆柱体位于国家大道的一个新前门附近，圆柱体内部和周围空间成为接待区。在接待区圆柱体内部的一堵新墙后面，一个新的外部楼梯通向二层屋顶平台，支撑在原来的桁架系统下面，并悬挂在圆柱体上，该圆柱体上原来的屋顶已被拆除。新甲板与屋顶圆柱形切口之间的空间采用了玻璃窗，使得接待区能够充分照射阳光。在第二层和第三层两个额外的外部楼梯拐弯处，楼梯就变成了内部楼梯，并与通向第三层的内部楼梯相连。

“盒子”本身采用钢腿吊起，钢腿倾斜形成了会议室地板的支撑梁。横梁被定位为两个平面，在平面中交叉成X形，在两个横梁的腹板上有一个球形切口，以便为在开放式二楼办公桌上的人员提供空间，该办公桌位于“盒子”下方，接待区上方。“盒子”似乎在一个钢球上滚动。

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.
