The document discusses the use of columns in lobby, foyer, and interactive spaces. It presents examples of designs that incorporate columns successfully and notes that columns do not need to be avoided in these areas. The architect encourages students to consider how columns can be designed and treated within a space rather than avoiding them altogether. Examples of column integration are provided along with reminders that one can decide whether or not to include columns based on the specific design.

Please also notice how that structure is extended so much behind and anchored to the main structure (probably up to 2 structural bays inside) Presentation by P.R.S.
