SUN SCREEN - Thomas Phifer and Partners: United States Courthouse, Salt Lake City

Building clad with custom designed anodized aluminum sun screen arranged in four configurations dependent on solar orientation. The screen performs as a direct heat gain blocker on the south facades, while subtly changing to a louvered fin configuration on the east and west facades.

good to know more about a material that is often used without much thinking....a spontaneous reflex to “facade” and “envelope”.

AS ARCHITECTURE STUDIO: Onassis Cultural Center, Athens / Greece

The facades are simultaneously opaque and transparent depending on whether one perceives them from near or afar. The project is revealed in the movement, the approach towards the building.

FACADE DETAIL SECTION  -  BENTHEM CROUWEL: Kulturbau. Koblenz

The volume has a double facade with a Structural-Glazing construction of white silk-screened glass, which envelops the building like a second skin and offers a frosted and refined appearance. The motif of the print provides a filtered view from inside to outside, and allows a vaguely transparent view when looking from the outside in. At the different entrances, the outer facade has a spacious cut and therefore offers a direct view of the lobby and entrance areas.

Glenstone project by Thomas Phifer; rendering (top image) by THE BOUNDARY (from UK, their latest Zumthor Lacma renderings are from them).

from the architect:

The curtain wall, which extends beyond the top of the ceiling slab and its landscaped roof, uses a dense, continuous frit to conceal a structural beam and mechanical channel. The glass unit is laminated, comprising an interior and exterior layer separated by a slim recess where the stainlesssteel plate can be connected. Avoiding more common structural solutions like load-bearing mullions or silicone, Heintges specified a clamped moment connection at the base of the unit. According to Aaron Davis, who worked on the project, this was done “by offsetting the outer laminated lite from the inner, providing a surface to clamp against.”
