Description

Designed with energy efficient building systems, the townhouses are surrounded by a unique louvered façade panel system made with Ductal® Envelope. Each of the largescale panels contains a series of ribs, covering a total surface area of 8,650 sq. ft (803.6 m2). The material’s superior properties facilitated the ability to produce a unique, robust louvered panel façade that is energy efficient while allowing both sunlight and shade to filter through to the building’s interior.
