When building a high-rise that must be designed to face a lifetime of difficult yet inevitable challenges, architects and curtain wall fabricators know it pays to work with people and products they can count on. That’s why the two twisting condominium towers now soaring over Miami’s exclusive Coconut Grove neighborhood feature window walls fabricated by Tecnoglass and finished with PPG Duranar® coatings.

Opened in the spring of 2018, The Forge, a 272-unit luxury residential tower on Long Island in New York, features a façade of copper-colored anodized aluminum cladding. Designed by FXCollaborative, its distinctive, artistically inspired, industrial-influenced exterior is composed of Dri-Design's aluminum wall panel system finished by Linetec. The project is pursuing LEED® Silver certification.

The 262-foot Limmat Tower is regarded as the centerpiece of one of Dietikon, Switzerland’s newer districts, Limmatfeld. At its impressive height, the structure towers high above the district, making it Rapidplatz square’s most recognizable feature. The aluminum composite material used on the building’s exterior façade features coatings from Beckers.

It may look like Captain America’s home, but the house near North Plains, OR with a decorative star and big blue door actually belongs to Jim and Star Weitman, a free-spirited couple with a zest for life and passion for flying. Newly remodeled, their home includes an attached 40’ x 40’ hangar featuring a 38’-wide polycarbonate-clad bifold door—in blue—manufactured by Schweiss Doors.

RHEINZINK was the natural choice to clad the roof of a new cottage located in the North Woods of Wisconsin. "The multi-level roof was a key part of the design and we wanted it to blend into the environment as much as possible," the owner said. Approximately 2,500 sq. ft. of RHEINZINK Double Lock Standing Seam Panels, fabricated by Sheet Metal Supply, met the criteria.
