DESIGN
The architects chose the VELUX modular skylight solution for its high quality and elegant design.
-One of the atriums uses VELUX Longlights in a traditional configuration to provide daylight to the area below.
-The other atrium is inspired by the hull of a ship, and the Ridgelight solution at 5° with beams is shaped to bring the oval ship-like design to life.
-Ventilation and smoke venting units are totally integrated and hidden from view, creating a seamless minimalistic expression.
