Originally specified as Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC), the project took a transformative turn when Aerostone was engaged to deliver a lighter, more cost-effective solution—crucial for reducing the overall weight impact on the building structure.

Leveraging advanced cutting technologies, Aerostone precisely carved intricate patterns into Hebel panels, following the designs provided by WOHA and project architect MJA. Over 3,500 custom-cut, routered, and rendered tiles were meticulously crafted and installed in a specific arrangement, resulting in a striking visual effect across the building’s elevation.

“Aerostone really came to the party, bringing to us a product that could be both sandblasted and routed ... this product is so much better than concrete. ... we think the Aerostone solution for this really complex problem has really delivered for the design intent of the architect.”
