Highlights
- During the final design phases, we provided comprehensive peer review services to the Korean executive architect to oversee the design of the specialty glazing systems, sunshades and glass atrium.
- We worked directly for the owner and its subsidiary general contractor, to review shop drawings, mock-up tests, and oversaw installation work onsite.
- The façade system for the energy-efficient complex includes a highly-specialized curtain wall with frameless insulated glazing at vision areas.
- A perforated, aluminum shading ribbon cantilevers from the curved steel structure and wraps around the perimeter, controlling solar heat gain while providing a comfortable interior for employees.
- A central atrium connects the three towers and feature a large gridshell-supported skylight.
