Sun protection for developing buildings
The modernisation of the GEMACO office building in Herstal, Belgium, is a particularly superb example of the innovative use of architectural mesh.
Haver & Boecker, the supplier of the wire mesh façade, created an aesthetically pleasing and functionally convincing solution with the LARGO-TWIST 2045 specification, which successfully implemented both the solar shading and the modernisation of the building façade.
The GEMACO building underwent a modernisation, which was designed by Vincent Boveroux. Among others the office building entrance, front façade and parking spaces were redesigned. A central element of this project was the installation of the external solar shading on the first floor using the HAVER architectural wire mesh. With a total area of 110 square meters and element sizes of 3 x 2.5 meters each, the mesh spans in front of the entire façade length and creates an outstanding metal cloth.
