Cook County Central Campus Health Center
Completed · 2017
This Chicago medical facility is another collaboration between Innovation Glass and the Gensler design team. A two-story VS1 facade wraps around the entryway of the building, featuring our standard 8” mullion and triple IGU, 1 13/16”-thick glass. The tapered shape of this vertical mullion reduces its visibility from the outside and makes the glass look like it’s floating.
FROM THE INSTALLER VENTANA
❝12,000 square feet of VS-1 system was provided on level one and two of the building. This is a point-supported system with eight inch deep bullet-shaped mullions, no horizontals, and gravity shelves and pinch bodies that hold the glass off the mullion. Tripled-glazed units with outboard, center, and inboard low-iron glass lites are used for a crystal clear look. In order to enhance the transparency, the VS-1 scope also features all-glass corners with steel angle channels for lateral support. ❞
