Glas-STAX Frameless systems used as a functional element in innovative Green Star building atrium
- Create voids to encourage natural light
- Create a flexible contemporary work environment
- Improve indoor air quality
- Ensure energy efficiency in services, including lighting and power consumption
Taking these into account the key design element was the creation of a full height central atrium to deliver light and air flow to the center of the building.
Lotus Glas-STAX Frameless systems were used to create a beautiful operable glass facade that formed part of the light transfer and clean air cycle strategy. This was achieved by selectively opening the facade via the Glas-STAX system, and allowing rising hot air to be flushed from the building using natural thermal currents.
Lotus are delighted to showcase the Glas-STAX Frameless product in this innovative application which required them be be a key part of the functional aspect of the atrium, as well as form an elegant definition of the atrium its self.
