Project Description
Stacked, single-glazed channel glass creates an impressive center column in the stair tower of this university research building. The Piccolo textured glass channels are back-painted in a custom white color. Mounted in our I-41 frame system, the glass is back-lit with LEDs, creating a lantern effect.
Testimonials
From the Architect
"The use of the Bendheim channel glass system, by integrating LED backlighting, provides an iconic beacon of light that helps to unite the building into its surrounding context. The channel glass system is a visual connector between floors and allows for uninterrupted vertical surfaces to span the 16’-0” floor to floor heights without the need of mid-span supports. By wrapping the main vertical stair around it, the channel glass system by Bendheim reflects transparency and awareness, as well as the forward-thinking nature of this research building.” — Scott Gilliam, Project Architect at BSA Life Structures
