The home of the Cardiff School of Creative and Cultural Industries, the Atrium, features several complex shapes and contours and is furnished in striking pure white cladding supplied by Euroclad.
Constructed of Dark Grey Metallic Alpolic/fr composite material, the Euroclad panels are part of a detailed and complex facade, which also features various types of curtain walling.
After a difficult selection process, the manufacturer was chosen for the colour consistency of the material and the proven flatness of the panels themselves.
At a cost of £160m, the new court complex will house 47 courtrooms, four tribunal courts, 75 consultation rooms, as well as office and administration space.
Designed by Denton Corker Marshall, the building will be a striking addition to the cityscape on its completion in early 2007.
Robert Simcock of Josef Gartner comments: "The Alpolic/fr panel system has a unique finish and was chosen for this project as it offers a consistent colour to the building facade over a large visible surface area.
This consistency of colour cannot be achieved with finishes such as anodised aluminium". Request a free brochure from Euroclad ...
