Cathedral-like volumes invite shafts of daylight into
the lowest levels. Filtering all of this is Viridian’s high
performance double-glazed PerformaTech™ with bespoke
frit pattern which seriously helps mediate full midday sun.
Performance clear glass is also used in all areas requiring
high visual transparency and largely replaces standard
issue plasterboard walls.
Study perches throughout recognise a real spatial
flexibility. Treetop balconies along Swanston Street
and a similar experience overlooking Bowen S treet
highlight the overall feel of floating space.
Viridian performance glazing is used extensively in
this model of high transparency and effortless student
circulation. Whether as delta shaped canopy, light
catching rooftop lanterns, atria or canopies, the frit
pattern of Viridian’s ScalaSeraphic™ glass mediates
direct sunlight like a parasol or veil.
