For the renovation of the Porsche of the Village, the owners sought to replace an old, drafty curtainwall with one that would parallel the performance of the brands’ industry-leading supercars.

Helping define its award-winning appearance and purposeful presence, the building enclosure’s custom, aluminum-framed, high-performance glazing systems were paired with complementary fixed windows.

Tubelite introduces Teach.TubeliteInc.com. The website centralizes educational resources for architects, specifiers, glazing contractors, clients and others interested in learning about architectural aluminum products for commercial building projects.

Designing and constructing a structure involves much more than the project’s immediate needs and costs. Rising regulatory pressure and shifting market trends mean firms must pay more attention to how their choices impact long-term building performance.

Serving as an important bridge between the low-rise, pedestrian-scaled Deep Ellum historic neighborhood and Dallas’ downtown high-rises, the new Epic I office building is creatively stacked in two to five-story blocks to mediate the two urban scales.

To enable Gensler’s sweeping 360-degree curtainwall design for the University of Texas at Austin’s 15,000+ seat Moody Center arena, the architects selected Solarban 70 clear glass with smaller portions of Solarban 70 Solargray glass from Vitro Architectural Glass.

Guardian Glass North America honored the glaziers and fabricators of seven commercial projects at its 6th annual Commercial Project Awards event March 6 in Las Vegas. More than 40 recently completed projects were nominated. 

With its distinct strips of terracotta panels and expansive glazed curtainwall, the new 230,000-square-foot Health Sciences Innovation Building at the University of Arizona features an expansive ground floor forum, daylit student lounges and study spaces, state-of-the art simulation laboratories and more.

The project, which is expected to continue through 2025, includes the removal and replacement of the original 35-year-old sealants on the entire 588-foot-tall building’s curtain wall and bridge.

Tubelite announces its new UniVent 1375AW Series Therml=Block Windows, including project-out awnings and casements, and project-in hoppers and casements. These operable windows are engineered to complement and seamlessly integrate within mid- to high-rise commercial buildings’ storefront and curtainwall systems.
