For additionally energy-effeciency, the open joints in the infrastructure of the building enable natural ventilation and solar shading. Since the exterior includes a continuous layer of insulation it is more resistant to heat flow(high R-values). Furthermore, Shildan was able to produce 6 tile styles, which were made rom 35% recycled content, into the materialed used to create this building. Another enegy effecient aspect is the curainwall system from polycarbonate honeycomb material intergrated in the insulated glass to provde a layer of solar proection as well as helping regulate indoor thermal temperatures.
