Kawneer's Curtain Walling Achieves Iconic Status

Plymouth has a new icon - the arts faculty build for the city's university - where striking copper cladding integrates with curtain walling, rooflights, windows and doors by architectural aluminium systems supplier Kawneer. The Kawneer systems have helped the £36m Roland Levinsky building achieve a 'Very Good' BREEAM rating. Kawneer's AA100 curtain walling was chosen for the glazing of the north and south facades. This was complemented on the copper-clad elements with Kawneer's AA100 rooflights that perforate the roof to illuminate the four-storey atrium at the heart of the building and AA600 windows that appear to randomly puncture the vertical planes, as well as narrow-style doors.
