double skin facade, fritted glass, vertical fins
Vertical fins span the building elevations forming a wave like appearance which also echo the wave shapes formed in the sandy beach when the tide is out. Options were explored through testing various designs against the reduction in solar glare with the combined visual and shading effect of this design.

double-glazed, floor-to-ceiling glass curtainwalls; architects studied how the sun tracks across the facade and devised a series of VERTICAL FINS to act as a sunshade. The fins should yield a 30 percent solar reduction on the exterior. The fins stretch down toward the lower level, providing shading for the lower-level spaces as well as for seating just outside the structure.
