Overview/Brief

The Youth Intervention Centre is an open door facility where young people between the ages of 19 to 25 can come for advice and help. The Centre provides administrative accommodation for the staff as well as social spaces and one to one counseling areas. The designs success was due to a collaborative effort from all team members and the Clients desire to create a building that expressed the particular issues they deal with daily in the local community. With awards for ‘Best Commercial Building’ and the ultimate prize of ‘Building of the Year’ Glazing Vision (GV) provided expert design, manufacture and installation services to City Build after in-depth contractual negotiations and protracted technical feasibility meetings.

Solution

This project provided a serious challenge to the GV team because of the overall architectural design of the building, templates were made after numerous site surveys and it was decided that the best possible product was an eaves rooflight variation on GV’s trademarked Flushglaze system.
