33 Is there a design highlight for you? The part that turned out even better than expected was the exterior color. We wanted the steelwork, the blades to resemble Corten steel without the risk of rust stains on other surfaces. We found a paint that simulates Corten and in combination with Viridian’s Bronze EVantage™ the results really explain the subtle impact and success of this place. Building contractors, Probuild, were extremely responsive to our design requirements. Did you consider any other facade alternatives to this? Or you were pretty committed to it from the outset? No, we were pretty much committed to it. That is what we wanted.
