corten steel cladding
This project comprises over 400 unique weathering steel facade panels that articulate a delicate, parametrically designed pattern that varies across the building’s surface.
Each panel was fabricated to tight tolerances and installed on site, achieving precise alignment and continuity across the complex building envelope. The expanded metal mesh was specifically engineered with fine, corrosion-resistant apertures to resist the intrusion of embers in high fire hazard areas.
The Corten panels are designed to patina naturally over time, allowing the facade to evolve with the building and harmonize with the surrounding landscape.
