Glass Tardis Lands For BCG

Bent and Curved Glass (BCG) showcase their products with a glass installation for the iSOFT Australasian Headquarters.

June 6th, 2011

Taking pride of place in the main reception area of the iSOFT Australasian Headquarters in Sydney, the Experience Centre is a collaboration between Bent and Curved Glass, architects HBO + EMT and glazing installation contractor Gleco Enterprises.

“Materials were selected to convey physical properties of transparency and reflection,” said project architect Jacqueline Urford.

Bent and Curved Glass supplied complex curved Starphire Low Iron glass, produced and laminated with a Solutia Polar White interlayer, a high density white perfect for this backlit application.

The final result is an example of how Bent and Curved Glass work closely with designers to develop glass products and processes to turn design concepts into reality.

Living up to the ’tardis’ label given to the project during concept stage, the installation is a striking focal point of the iSOFT offices.

PRODUCTS TO WFH :: As we embrace virtual meetings, gone are the days when it was fine to have a backdrop of spare room chaos and peeling posters. That part, we are getting right with neat shelves of good books, art works, the occasional vase of flowers and sometimes a fresh coat of paint. It’s now time to turn attention to what our screen can’t see, but what we can and do experience every day.

Here we have 8 ideas, and 43 in total over on indesignlive.com
