Project Description
The renovation of this college’s humanities building saw the addition of 504 Rough Cast channel glass in various applications. A three-story stairwell is enclosed in a curved, single-glazed channel glass wall, with glass reaching 21 feet in height. Utilizing our SF-60 framing system, 22-foot-tall double-glazed channel glass creates straight walls and encloses two floors, filling the spaces with diffused light. Interior partitions made of single-glazed channel glass, set in our I-41 framing system, also help diffuse light through the space with their textured surfaces.
