The project at Grosvenor Square placed the highest demands on materials and workmanship, as the lead architects, David Chipperfield Architects, had set themselves ambitious goals with the luxurious redesign and the BREEAM Outstanding certification.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Modernism in dialogue with Georgian style. <\/strong>With its mid-century architectural style and Theodore Roszak\u2019s gilded eagle sculpture\u2014which, with an impressive wingspan of over 11 metres, towers above the main entrance at the edge of the roof\u2014the embassy building stood as a symbol of the close ties between the US and the UK after the Second World War. The Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen deliberately designed the striking Portland stone facades in keeping with the Georgian-style buildings on Grosvenor Square<\/p>\n<p><strong>Luxury above the rooftops of London. <\/strong>Gebr\u00fcder Schneider manufactured and installed the facade systems for two key construction elements: the ground floor zone, which opens the building up to the city, and two upper storeys. The sixth floor forms the new crown of the building in Saarinen\u2019s design language; above this is a recessed penthouse floor with premium suites and the rooftop bar, offering sweeping views of Grosvenor Square and Hyde Park.<\/p>\n<p>Gebr\u00fcder Schneider supplied 736 m\u00b2 of gold-anodised aluminium panel cladding for the penthouse, which not only echoes the existing colour scheme but also complements the restored golden eagle on the roof edge. On the ground floor and top floor, 2,035 m\u00b2 of aluminium mullion-transom facades were installed.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the additional work, the team carried out a professional and careful renovation of the historic metal curtain walls, taking into account heritage conservation requirements. Furthermore, the scope of work included the precise installation of two sectional doors, plant grilles and bespoke glazed rooflight, including all necessary connections, fixings and detailing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1604433251502{margin-right: -15px !important;padding-right: 45px !important;padding-left: 45px !important;background-color: #017955 !important;}&#8221;
