A different kind of green façade

In the centre of the up-and-coming Centro Sur district in Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico, the ‘Seguros Atlas’ office building is an outstanding example of modern architecture and sustainable construction. By using architectural mesh as a façade material, this project sets new standards in terms of design and functionality. Realised by Haver & Boecker, the innovative façade not only offers aesthetic benefits, but also significant energy savings.

With a total area of 870 square metres, the building's façade was clad with EGLA-TWIN 4253 architectural mesh. This metal wire mesh is particularly known for its versatility and aesthetic properties. With a weight of approx. 6.0 kg/m² and an open area of around 51%, it creates an optimum balance between light transmission and solar protection.
