The San Francisco Federal Building is a building designed by the architectural firm Morphosis. It is located at 90 7th Street on the corner of Mission and 7th Streets in South of Market, San Francisco.

I’ve heard that Thom Mayne tried to and successfully employed a very symbolic concept “Resistance” at the very first beginning. More importantly, by using a large amount of glass on the building, the artist successfully bought the sunlight to light up the interiors. Hence, a very environmentally friendly architectural masterpiece was born and continue to inspire the later generations to come.
