How we helped the client
Scope of Work
Craft was awarded the design, supply and installation of the high performance library façades in this community complex. Our scope included all of the structural steel, roof cladding, glazing and doors for the 7 storey high glass tower and the 16 meter high glass entry prism. We also designed, supplied and installed the 40 skylights that allow natural day light to filter down into the underground library.
