Key Highlights
- 4 Star Green Star New Build rating.
- Detailed façade simulations to inform the final façade design incorporating high-performance glazing, solar control coatings, vertical shading elements and optimised façade geometry, resulting in a whole-building balance of energy efficiency, thermal comfort and daylight autonomy.
- Glare analyses through building performance modelling and on-site investigation, resulting in recommendations for different mitigation measures such as provision for future shading devices, retractable internal shading systems and localised solar control measures through specialist design of reception desk furniture.
