Requirements

Diversity of Materials and Surfaces

There are no limits to architectural design and the use of materials. For the renovation of the building block on New Bond Street, a variety of materials and surfaces such as aluminum, glass, stainless steel, steel, GRC (Glassfiber Reinforced Concrete), as well as stone (Broughton Moor and Blackstone) were used.

The different surface treatments such as powder coating, anodizing, galvanization, various glass coatings, stone treatments, and more, not only offer aesthetic variations but also provide protection against weathering and increase the lifespan of the facade. By skillfully integrating these materials and surfaces, an architectural concept was realized that not only stands out visually but also meets functional requirements. Crucial to this success was our knowledge of specific material properties and the behavior of materials in different combinations.
