122 Leadenhall - The Cheesegrater

The 75,000 square metres façade features a curtain wall that is double glazed to allow for a high solar protection on neutral-looking glass.

Fruit and Wool Exchange

The new-build façades are predominately brick-faced, with punched windows to reflect the surrounding context.

Caudwell International

Curved glass, punch windows and precast stone panels make up the envelope on a figure-of-eight footprint.

Stroke of genius

Nestled into its surrounding landscape with an interesting origami-like structure, this facility represents sustainability in action. SunGuard® SNX 62/27 on clear glass saved the day when the original specified glass failed to meet energy requirements. It harmonizes with metal elements on the dramatic façade and fills the interior with light. Due to the building’s proximity to a local bird sanctuary, a white frit pattern on the glass was selected to deter bird collisions.
