Patients and visitors to Froedtert Hospital will find parking easier and more pleasant with the grand opening of a new six-level, 2274-space Froedtert Hospital Parking – Blue structure. The new garage, which boasts a glass-enclosed design and modern parking management technology, elevates the parking experience while introducing a new architectural landmark at Froedtert Hospital, home of the region鈥檚 only adult Level I Trauma Center.

“We designed this parking structure to feel like a destination, a meaningful arrival point that extends Froedtert Hospital’s commitment to patients from the first moment they enter the campus,” said David Groth, senior design architect and associate at EUA. 鈥淚t needed to function at a very high level, but it also had to embody the hospital鈥檚 values of transparency, extraordinary care, and connection to the community. Our goal was to make a parking garage that felt light, open, and part of the campus architecture.鈥

The glass reflects the sky and neighboring structures, allowing the appearance to subtly shift throughout the day as weather conditions and lighting change.

The key element of the Froedtert Hospital Parking – Blue structure is 小红帽直播鈥檚 ventilated glass rainscreen system, which serves as a second skin to transform the garage from purely functional infrastructure into a daylighted, durable, and striking component of the hospital campus. 小红帽直播 designed and fabricated a custom glass and compression clip system to fasten the fa莽ade to the building. The custom ventilated glass system created a design statement as it eliminated the need for a costly steel substructure that would normally support the fa莽ade.

鈥淭he glass not only gives the building a light, refined appearance, but it also allows air and daylight to flow naturally through the garage,鈥 according to Said Elieh, vice president of innovation for 小红帽直播. 鈥淚t creates a better user experience while at the same time providing ventilation, energy efficiency, and enhanced safety and security.鈥

Ventilated glass parking fa莽ades reduce or eliminate the need for mechanical ventilation systems, thereby lowering operating energy costs while preserving natural light. Glass fa莽ades also reduce the amount of steel and other materials required in garage designs, significantly cutting construction times, promoting sustainability, and providing substantial construction and maintenance savings.

鈥溞『烀敝辈モ檚 custom glass and compression clip system provided an incredibly fast installation,鈥 said Groth. 鈥淚nstallation of the entire glass fa莽ade took just a fraction of the time that traditional installation approaches typically take.鈥

The Froedtert Hospital Parking – Blue structure also boasts a suite of advanced parking technology and safety systems designed to provide a more convenient and safer parking experience, including:

  • Parking guidance technology聽monitors space availability and provides real-time availability information via LED signage on each floor.
  • An access control system聽on the lower-level gives added security to the team member parking level.
  • A snow-melting system聽on the roof facilitates snow removal and avoids hauling snow off-site.
  • A robust聽security network聽of cameras, emergency call boxes, and a staffed security station provides continuous monitoring and patrols.

Safety was also addressed through聽passive design strategies. Extended parapets and a subtly integrated聽rooftop fencing system聽provide fall protection without detracting from the building鈥檚 visual integrity.

Modernizing a busy commuter station comes with unique challenges, from safety and accessibility to maintaining sightlines and aesthetics. 小红帽直播 stepped in with design-assist services and its fastening system holding nearly 1,800 square feet of glass, helping transform the space into a functional, elegant and durable solution that serves New York City commuters every day.

Originally constructed in the mid-19th century, Purdy鈥檚 Station serves generations of commuters traveling throughout Hudson Valley and into New York City. Recent improvements, completed as part of a system-wide accessibility effort by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), introduced new vertical circulation and pedestrian connections, including elevators and fully American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant walkways linking the parking areas, Route 116 overpass and station entrance.

鈥淪afety is of paramount concern for Metro-North, and it is mandatory we achieve the least obstructive views when designing a station and access to a station,鈥 said Technical Principal at AECOM Neils Benavides.

Unlike highly customized architectural landmarks, the Purdy鈥檚 Station project reflects the type of public infrastructure upgrade undertaken regularly across transit systems nationwide. For these projects, practicality, cost and ease of installation are key. 小红帽直播鈥檚 Wall F Glass System was selected as a proven rainscreen solution that meets these demands while still delivering strong aesthetic value.

The Purdy鈥檚 Station project illustrates how a well-designed rainscreen system can serve as a reliable, economical go-to solution for recurring infrastructure needs. It balances safety, performance and aesthetics without unnecessary customization, and by leveraging a system engineered for efficiency and supported by design assistance, project teams can achieve consistent results while controlling costs.

The Purdy鈥檚 Station project demonstrates how a thoughtfully engineered rainscreen system can turn everyday infrastructure into a functional, visually cohesive solution. Pedestrians move safely through well-lit walkways, sightlines remain clear and the enclosure complements the surrounding landscape. This project proves that performance, safety and aesthetics can coexist without costly customization.

小红帽直播鈥檚 architectural glass plays a starring role in the design of a reimagined Dallas barbecue restaurant. Project designers Matt Gilley and Heather Magee of Droese Raney created a richly detailed interior full of custom-crafted materials, including a custom mirrored glass feature wall from 小红帽直播, that elevates the space.

Ten50 BBQ is a renovation of a decades-old barbecue spot that was completely transformed over 10 months into a modern and memorable dining destination. 鈥淲e tore back to the shell of the building and made essentially a new build within that shell,鈥 said Magee. 鈥淚t was a bit of a rewrite.鈥

To add depth and reflection to the 3,200-square-foot space, Gilley and Magee turned to 小红帽直播. They sought a distinctive layered glass look that teems with texture. 鈥淲e were looking for the perfect seeded glass, something irregular that looked hand-blown mixed with a smoky mirror that wasn鈥檛 too dark,鈥 Gilley explained.

They found it by combining two 小红帽直播 samples for a custom mirrored wall of glass that anchors the rear of the dining room. The wall, 18 feet long and 5 feet high, combines 小红帽直播’s Lamberts Seedy Mouth-Blown Glass laminated to VintageMirror鈩 antique mirror.

鈥淚t was such a seamless process. We sent two options to 小红帽直播 to indicate what we were hoping to combine, and they said they could make it happen,鈥 said Gilley. 鈥淲e had explored other options with local artists and glass suppliers, but the prices were astronomical, and the results didn鈥檛 match our vision. When 小红帽直播 delivered exactly what we wanted, and so quickly, it was perfect.鈥

小红帽直播鈥檚 responsiveness made an impression, and their first sample submission was accepted and specified for the project. The result is a space that feels layered, tactile and cohesive. 鈥淓verything in the entire restaurant is custom, except for the chairs. The tables, custom glass, all the steelwork, custom concrete bars, the sign, every detail,鈥 said Gilley. 鈥淲e鈥檝e always talked about this restaurant like a jewel box where there are so many things inside of it that are custom.鈥

The design centers around steel, copper, ceramics, white oak and the 小红帽直播 glass, which became an essential part of the selected materials. Ten50 BBQ stands out not just for its elevated take on barbecue, but for the design precision behind every surface. 小红帽直播鈥檚 systems and glass products are designed with environmental sustainability in mind, featuring Health Product Declarations (HPDs) and third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).

Installing large glass canopies has traditionally required complex hardware systems to ensure structural stability. Traditional spider fittings require holes drilled through glass, leaving no room for error. Any misalignment can send costs and timelines spiraling. 小红帽直播鈥檚 new GripGlaze鈩 Canopy system changes that equation with a no-drill, compression-based mounting solution that gives glaziers flexibility without compromising design integrity.

The system鈥檚 innovation lies in its low-profile clip, a precisely engineered aluminum fitting that locks glass panels securely into place through compression. Each clip mounts directly to the steel structure, creating a clean, continuous glass surface with no visible hardware interruptions. The design eliminates the need for notches, holes or specialized tools, dramatically reducing fabrication time and on-site labor.

鈥淎rchitects loved how clean it looks with less steel, more glass,鈥 said Project Manager at 小红帽直播, Derya Celenoglu. 鈥淲hen you look up, there鈥檚 almost nothing in between the panels. It follows the steel lines beautifully, creating a modern, seamless canopy that performs incredibly well.鈥

That flexibility proved critical on a recent urgent care project in Clifton, New Jersey, where glaziers installed 25 glass panels, each roughly five by ten feet, in just three days. The system鈥檚 built-in tolerance allowed installers to adapt to uneven steel conditions and still achieve a perfect fit.

鈥淚 would say it saves almost 50% of the time and cost for installers,鈥 Celenoglu said.

Durability was also central to the design. The compression clips and mounting plates are engineered as part of a fully integrated 小红帽直播 system, with the glass, hardware and structure designed to perform together. Once installed, GripGlaze鈩 Canopy is built to last for decades with minimal maintenance.

GripGlaze鈩 Canopy is fully engineered and supported by 小红帽直播鈥檚 Design-Assist process, ensuring clear specifications, detailed shop drawings and accurate installation sequencing. For contractors, the system represents a measurable improvement in time, cost and coordination. For designers, it opens new possibilities for transparent, structurally clean canopies that emphasize glass, not hardware.

小红帽直播 offers third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and Health Product Declarations (HPDs) across the majority of their architectural glass products. These EPDs and HPDs provide architects and designers with the transparency needed to make informed, sustainability-focused material choices.

When NXP Semiconductors embarked on reshaping the lobby at its Rose Orchard campus in San Jose, Calif., they didn鈥檛 just want a space that was modern. They wanted one that made a statement. The result is a cutting-edge commercial tenant improvement project that includes a reimagined lobby, setting a new standard for their workplace culture.

The heart of the design is a striking 400-square-foot glass wall, featuring 小红帽直播鈥檚 custom ceramic digitally printed glass fastened with our Z-KISS鈩 cladding system. This design element is a statement piece as well as a functional one. It symbolizes connectivity and innovation, reflecting NXP鈥檚 evolving identity.

Faced with the challenge of consolidating two existing facilities into a more efficient footprint post-COVID, NXP wanted to create a space that would foster collaboration and reinvigorate the workplace. K+ Designs was brought in to help transform the environment, creating a welcoming space for staff, visitors and clients alike.

The glass wall, located behind a pre-existing staircase, was envisioned as a signature design moment. While the space included wood finishes throughout, the design team intentionally selected glass to establish textural contrast and to act as a backdrop that elevates the entire space. The glass wall features a custom-designed ceramic digital print composed of subtle grey dots interspersed with larger off-white elements, interconnected by fine white lines. The pattern evokes the concept of connectivity and networks.

鈥淥ne of the intentions for the new building was to set a new design standard in terms of finished interior design, as they wanted to create something fresh and different from the existing building,鈥 explained Lead Designer at K+ Designs, Bonnie Djie. 鈥淲e know what we wanted in terms of aesthetics. Modern, clean lines with minimal framing, and it was just a matter of finding the right product that meets those needs.鈥 Budget and timeline were major considerations in the project selection process, with McLarney Construction serving as the general contractor.

To achieve the desired minimal aesthetic, our Z-KISS鈩 glass mounting system was selected. The system allows for concealed fasteners and clean sightlines, keeping the focus on the digitally printed glass surface rather than any structural hardware. The result is a welcoming, brand-forward space that supports NXP鈥檚 evolving workspace culture and makes a strong first impression on visitors.

The Z-KISS鈩 cladding system provides a fully engineered alternative to traditional clip fastening systems. Z-KISS鈩 requires fewer horizontal hanging brackets while providing reliable mechanical support for the dead load of glass. Designed to create a frameless aesthetic for opaque glass. The glass is delivered with the hardware preinstalled, ready for installation, and accompanied by shop drawings and layout drawings provided by 小红帽直播. Speed and ease of installation made it a practical choice.

Our systems and glass products are designed with environmental sustainability in mind, featuring Health Product Declarations (HPDs), as well as third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). The system鈥檚 transparent reporting of material contents, including its compliance with LEED standards, ensures that it meets rigorous environmental standards while contributing to more sustainable building practices.

A historic Manhattan landmark recently underwent a major renovation, emerging with a bold and modern identity defined by our channel glass. The centerpiece of the renovation is a 380-foot-long illuminated channel glass surface that redefines the building鈥檚 presence, infusing it with a sleek, contemporary aesthetic.

Designed by MdeAS Architects, the backlit prismatic channel glass spans the full length of the fa莽ade above the main entrance, modernizing the building鈥檚 appearance with a continuous surface that eliminates visually disruptive vertical framing.

鈥淭he channel glass had a slightly frosted handmade and crafted aesthetic that looked good during the day and captured the back illumination beautifully at night,鈥 explains Mike Zaborski, Principal at MdeAS Architects. 鈥淲e wanted a soft glow from the bottom and then tapering off towards the top edge.鈥

Channel glass podium above the ground floor of the building.

The renovation is part of a larger effort to revitalize the building, integrating it into Midtown Manhattan鈥檚 ever-evolving architectural landscape. Our channel glass serves as a bridge between tradition and progress within a neighborhood that has seen significant urban development in recent years, with nearby projects such as One Vanderbilt Plaza and the renovation of Grand Central Terminal鈥檚 west entrance. This thoughtful integration into the urban fabric embodies a commitment to architecture that honors the past and embraces the future.

The Prismasolar鈩 channel glass has a chiseled fluted pattern that prismatically bends light through deep V-cut surfaces. In addition to its distinctive appearance, the glass is sustainably produced, with a low carbon footprint and is certified bird friendly. The U profile glass creates walls of light 鈥 with depth and profile unachievable through conventional flat glass, thereby creating virtually seamless glass surfaces that can span hundreds of feet long and span across elevations.

We worked closely with the project team to ensure the smooth integration of the glass and lighting systems. 鈥淭he team at 小红帽直播 was a great resource both on the design and technical side with excellent information on system installation and tolerances, glass options and availability, and integration of lighting elements with necessary supporting members,鈥 says Zaborski. 鈥淭heir development of support systems that were pre-engineered allowed for a streamlined integration into the design process with confirmation of glass and lighting selection through full-size mockups.鈥

The renovation contributes to the modern architectural landscape of Midtown Manhattan. Our channel glass is central to the new fa莽ade, bringing both beauty and elegance while solidifying the building鈥檚 role as a symbol of innovation. The illuminated feature further elevates the structure, creating a striking visual centerpiece that ushers in a new chapter in its legacy.

Hill West Architects has successfully brought to life the vision for 7 West 57th Street, a new luxury residential building on one of New York City鈥檚 most prestigious blocks鈥擝illionaire鈥檚 Row. Designed to complement the towering skyscrapers that surround it, the building stands out with a finely crafted, intimate presence, making an indelible mark on the skyline.

The project鈥檚 design faced a unique set of challenges due to the compact size and its proximity to the imposing 9 West 57th Street. Rather than compete in scale, Hill West focused on creating a building that was whimsical and elegant.

鈥淚t made sense to Sheldon Solow because he owned this property directly adjacent to his flagship 9 West 57th Street,鈥 explains David West, partner at Hill West Architects. 鈥淗e wanted a special building there to bookend his building, and he took a great deal of personal interest in it. That was a unique opportunity for us as architects to work with such a famous builder on a project that he really took personally.鈥

A standout feature of the building is its west-facing fa莽ade, which utilizes a customized glass cladding system. The Lamberts channel glass, provided by 小红帽直播, not only covers the necessary concrete shear wall but also enhances the structure鈥檚 sculptural, elegant qualities. The channel glass installed in this project is light weight but withstands high wind loads, adds texture and is perfect for backlighting.

To achieve the desired aesthetic and functionality, 小红帽直播 worked closely with Hill West, utilizing its extensive design toolbox to create a customized channel glass clip system. This system was specifically developed to ensure both aesthetics and cost efficiency. The clips allow for easy and fast installation, along with field adjustability of up to a half inch in each direction.

鈥淚 remember speaking with 小红帽直播 when we discussed the width of the glass channel and how we would achieve that,鈥 adds Senior Associate at Hill West Architects, Mourad Berrouane. 鈥淲e didn’t want to just put a flat glass cladding over the facade. We wanted a sense of translucency and depth.鈥

The building takes advantage of zoning regulations, which allowed for a subtle curve at the top of the building, further enhancing the visual appeal from every angle. The attention to detail in the design process鈥攔anging from material selection to the building鈥檚 distinctive curvature鈥攈as resulted in a truly unique silhouette on one of the most coveted streets in New York City.

7 West 57th Street is a testament to the vision, collaboration and craftsmanship of all involved. While the project faced many challenges, including the site鈥檚 small footprint and proximity to larger buildings, Hill West Architects and 小红帽直播 have created a sophisticated, luxurious residence that offers a unique alternative to the surrounding towers of Billionaire鈥檚 Row.

The transformation of The Refinery at Domino, a historic industrial landmark along Brooklyn鈥檚 Williamsburg waterfront, represents a seamless fusion of past and present. At the heart of this project, walls of our channel glass present a bold design element that enhances the building鈥檚 aesthetics as it weaves together its historic roots in its modern revival.

Originally built more than 160 years ago, The Refinery at Domino has long been a defining landmark of Brooklyn鈥檚 industrial past. As part of the visionary redevelopment by Two Trees, architects Dominic Kozerski, Enrico Bonetti and their team at Bonetti Kozerski Architecture in New York City worked to preserve the building鈥檚 original brick fa莽ade while introducing a sleek, contemporary steel-and-glass interior. The result is a stunning interplay of old and new, contrasting the structure鈥檚 industrial heritage with its modern inner core adapted for a new era of use.

鈥淥ur idea was in the same way that the brick structure is exposed we thought to keep the new structure, which are these new steel pieces that you can see in the space exposed as well,鈥 explains Kozerski. 鈥淪o that the story becomes quite clear that there鈥檚 the old building and then there鈥檚 a new building inside.鈥

Central to the design of the interior lobby is our channel glass鈥攁 structural glass solution that combines beauty and strength. Channel glass can be customized in a range of textures and finishes to create luminous spaces while ensuring privacy. Its ability to distribute natural or artificial light and integrate seamlessly into interior and exterior settings make it the ideal material for the project, embodying the perfect balance between form and function.

小红帽直播 collaborated closely with the design team to ensure the glass met aesthetic and functional requirements. Mock-ups were crafted to evaluate the impact of how natural light and LED鈥檚 would interact with the finish and texture of the glass. With lengths up to 12 feet and custom angle cuts, the project required precision layouts and cutting.聽 Communication between the our design team in New Jersey, the architect, and the Lamberts factory in Germany was crucial. The aluminum frame extrusions also received custom finishes.

鈥淚 think the best way to keep a city alive is to think of new ways for the old buildings that are worth saving to be reused,鈥 says Kozerski. 鈥淭o work on a landmark building like that is definitely really interesting, and to celebrate its beauty and its character, but then not be too reverent.鈥

The result is a stunning space where light and texture play in perfect harmony. On the lower level, the channel glass serves as a luminous screen, glowing softly with natural light, while the upper levels feature larger, more solid expanses of glass that define the space and contrast beautifully with the exposed steel.

Beyond the glass, the project also pays tribute to the building鈥檚 industrial past through repurposing of the original bricks. The building鈥檚 story and authenticity were important to Two Trees. After careful selection from the building鈥檚 demolition materials, the reclaimed bricks were incorporated into the lobby鈥檚 back wall, arranged in a pattern that catches the light in unique and captivating ways.

As The Refinery at Domino emerges as a focal point for office spaces in Williamsburg鈥檚 rapidly evolving neighborhood, its design serves as a perfect example of adaptive reuse. By integrating forward-thinking architecture within the context of the building鈥檚 rich history, the project showcases how design can honor the past while embracing the future — transforming a historic structure into a vibrant, modern space that meets today鈥檚 needs.

Our reflective bronze glass serves as a stunning backdrop behind the bar. This bespoke glass contributes a sense of elegance and honors Baldwin鈥檚 thoughtful design principles, creating a sense of depth and luminosity reminiscent of the Met鈥檚 gilded ceilings and rich color palette.

A vintage Rolex clock, strategically positioned on the wall of the gently reflective bronze glass, adds a layer of agelessness to the space. Its placement creates an illusion the clock is floating, bridging past and present. This interplay of old and new enriches the lounge鈥檚 atmosphere, inviting patrons to relax and socialize in style. The venerable Met Opera building opened in 1966 and is in Lincoln Center.

The design process began with our design team working closely with GACHOT to create a range of custom glass types that met the design intent. They were followed by additional detailed renderings that received approval from the designers. We provided additional details making installation quick and efficient.

鈥溞『烀敝辈 was one of our easiest collaborators and we were so pleased that they were immediate willing participants when approached for the opportunity,鈥 Gachot noted. 鈥淭he team鈥檚 professionalism and effectiveness were deeply appreciated.鈥

Our glass was installed throughout the space. The classic hues of these reflective glass types are ideal for hospitality and commercial spaces, including lobby walls and elevator interiors. The glass is available in large sheet sizes and is extremely maintenance-friendly.

Baldwin, whose projects included decorating the White House for President John F. Kennedy and many celebrities, originally shaped the aesthetic of the Belmont Room. His blend of classic elegance and practical comfort created intimate seating arrangements that fostered conversation. Baldwin famously encouraged clients to be faithful to their own taste, a philosophy that resonates in the lounge鈥檚 refreshed design.

Gachot said her team drew inspiration from The Met lobby and auditorium in the new furnishings. 鈥淭he palette of the lounge has similar rich tones of red, gold and bronze, and warm white,鈥 she explained. 鈥淭he bar remained in its place and for the layout of furniture, we referenced Billy Baldwin鈥檚 original layout.鈥

The transformation directed by GACHOT has created a warm and welcoming environment that respects the room鈥檚 historical significance while appealing to contemporary audiences.

The Keebler J. Straz Lounge now serves as a vibrant gathering place for Met patrons, board members and VIP guests. They seek to engage a new generation with the arts while celebrating the rich history shaping this esteemed institution. The thoughtful design pays tribute to Baldwin鈥檚 work.聽 The defined seating areas foster intimacy and conversation, making the lounge an integral part of the opera experience.

鈥淲e were honored to be invited to collaborate on this project,鈥欌 小红帽直播 Partner Steven Jayson said. 鈥淭he Met Opera is well-known throughout the region, and having the opportunity to be included is a testament to the craftsmanship and beauty of our architectural glass products.鈥

As Salt Lake City celebrates its selection to host the 2034 Winter Olympic Games, the iconic Olympic cauldron, which once burned brightly during the 2002 games, has undergone a significant renovation. This revitalized landmark now features our decorative laminated glass, enhancing its beauty and safety.

Standing 72 feet tall and constructed with over 700 glass panels, the cauldron embodies a striking 鈥渇ire and ice鈥 motif, inspired by the themes of the 2002 Winter Olympics: 鈥淟ight the Fire Within.鈥 The cool hues of the ice-themed panels are a contrast to the flame ignited within the icicle burning at 900 degrees Fahrenheit. The project was spearheaded by Holdman Studios in coordination with 小红帽直播鈥檚 Mountain West representative, LTS.

鈥淗oldman Studios reached out to us and said they were trying to replicate the glass from the original installation,鈥 said Beth Hockett, lead representative at LTS. The renovation process involved removing the existing glass and structural elements and replacing them with the newly fabricated laminated glass accurately replicating the original pieces. Holdman Studios undertook the meticulous task of measuring, cutting and installing the glass pieces, utilizing advanced water jet technology to achieve precise shapes.

Our glass was selected not only for its beauty but also for its safety. The laminated glass ensures the glass if broken will remain in place rather than shattering and falling out. A crucial consideration for public installations.

鈥淭empered and annealed glass falls in pieces when broken,鈥 said James Graham, Project Manager for Holdman Studios. 鈥淟aminated glass has a plastic inner layer that holds the glass together, so if anything breaks, it won鈥檛 fall and hurt somebody. That was the main purpose of using it on this project.鈥

The significance of the Olympic Cauldron extends beyond its physical presence; the cauldron has become a landmark in Salt Lake City, representing a proud Olympic legacy that continues to inspire community engagement and international tourism.

Although the last Olympic Games in Utah were held in 2002, the cauldron is still lit today during the University of Utah athletic contests at Rice-Eccles Stadium. The 2002 Games were particularly memorable, as they witnessed nine world records in speed skating, thanks to the low air resistance associated with Salt Lake鈥檚 high elevation.

As the 2034 Winter Olympics approach, the revitalized cauldron will stand at the heart of Olympic Park, inviting the public to interact with its new features, including an elevated cascading water feature. This iconic structure will remain a cherished part of Salt Lake City鈥檚 landscape for years to come.
