Close to the clouds in Soho

RPBW Renzo Piano Building Workshop has created impressive buildings all over the world – many of them skyscrapers that open up new spatial dimensions for living and working.

A stunning example of this is the 565 Broome Soho project in New York: Designed in collaboration with SLCE Architects and RDAI for the interiors, the 30-storey residential tower features floor-to-ceiling windows and elegantly curved glass corners, offering breathtaking views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline. Slender mullions enhance the transparency of the façade, creating a visual link between the multi-faceted interior and the vibrant neighbourhood.

This project incorporates BGT's high performance glass solutions. Solar control glass ensures optimum energy efficiency and indoor comfort, while insulating glass enhances thermal performance. Laminated glass provides safety and acoustic benefits, while toughened glass provides the required durability and structural integrity.
