The choices made in materials, shading, and energy systems will determine whether buildings remain safe havens or become liabilities.
High-performance coatings, such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based coatings, add upfront expense but reduce or even eliminate costly recoats/replacement later in the building’s life.
The building’s striking facade features black metal panels, installed in a cohesive pattern at a 45-degree angle.
Metal building systems are noncombustible structures using steel framing and metal panels, manufactured for pre-assembly inspection.
