Sustainable mesh screens curve with façade to provide energy-saving shading

North Carolina A&T Student Health Center | Winton-Salem, North Carolina | Solar Shading

Masking the morning sun, a giant metal mesh screen follows the curvature of the state-of-the-art health center’s façade and shades second story glass windows while offering an inviting, high-tech appearance for students seeking care. The sustainable features of the mesh contribute to daylighting and view credits and helped the building’s architects meet LEED Silver national green building design standards.
