Bondi Beach Facade
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Curved glass proved to be an essential element in translating the undulating flow of the architect’s facade design while maintaining an uninterrupted view to what is arguably Australia’s most famous beach vista. The challenge was to achieve optical quality and dimensional accuracy at the highest level. The architects desire to minimise the number of silicon joints resulted in the glass being manufactured with a complex curved profile incorporating flat tangents at each end. Bent and Curved Glass worked closely with the architects, Developer, Builder and Installation Contractors to not only provide the glazing design solutions but to ensure the required aesthetics would be maintained within the very tight budget constraints.
