The fan-like façade is almost entirely glass to maximise the views from the offices within. In the upper floors, the north-facing curtain façade pushes up over the roof fins, creating a large city window that stretches over the entire height of the Sky Garden.
BGT delivered a total of 4,300 m2 of insulating glass, made with laminated safety glass to ensure stability. Solar protection coatings reduce heat influx in the summer months. The building was awarded the BREEAM “Excellent” rating.
