VS1 SYSTEMS LIBRARY
This simple “kit of parts” offers users an unprecedented level of flexibility while eliminating transoms and fitting hardware from daylight openings. The VS1 glass curtain wall system was created for designers, enabling them to provide new architectural responses, achieve superior building performance and faster project delivery at great value.
Use it to create excellent architecture.
Note: any system can be paired with any mullion profile. The renderings below are general depictions of system options.
