Description of the project

Like a pirate ship, the Black Pearl Building in Brussels, rises up in the urban landscape to break the monotony of the European district. The concrete’s dark tint highlights the transparency of the 6,000 sqms of Guardian SunGuard SN 51/28 used in the project’s generous glazed curtain wall.
