Project Description
In a renovation of one of the campus’ oldest buildings, walls of channel glass can be found on the interior and exterior. On the exterior, our double-glazed 504 Rough Cast channel glass walls, installed in SF-60 frame systems, feature thermal insulation inserts to increase the thermal performance of the glass. Meanwhile, on the interior, single-glazed channel glass walls with glass-to-glass corners diffuse incoming daylight. The project is LEED Gold certified.
