The design opens the building to natural light and views to Central Park and the city on all sides. A series of cuts open the building’s concrete shell, each one a continuous line that unites the façade, walls, floors and ceilings. This single act transforms and edits the building from a closed volume to a light-filled, cantilevered structure. To achieve this look LITEFLAM XT 60 was designed and installed to meet not only the design aesthetic but also maintain the fire separation required between the floors.

Application: Interior, 1 hr fire-rated glass floor.
