Auszug aus dem Architekten-Report:
"The towers and their base are clad with stainless steel extrusions and custom-made 20.38-
millimetre laminated light-green glass. The curtain wall of each of the triangular corners of
the towers is flat with a 90° corner at its extremity, while the curtain wall of the semicircular
protrusions is faceted. The curtain wall panel system comprises a total of 33,000 panels. Each
panel rises one floor and spans from sill to sill, with vision glass below a stainless steel
spandrel with a grey glass spandrel at the top. Horizontal ‘bullnose’ and ‘teardrop’ sunscreen
brackets provide shading. Each sunscreen is the same width as one of the curtain wall panels
and together they give the appearance of a continuous silver ribbon around the building. Both
types of sunscreen have cast aluminium end caps and are fixed on brackets made of extruded
aluminium and finished with oven-cured PVF2 fluorocarbon paint."
