WHAT & HOW

Hospitality · New Build · Curved VS1-G wall at hotel entrance, spanning 4.8m (15'9")

Innovation Glass India Pvt. Ltd. is proud to present our contribution to The World Surat, Gujarat’s largest all-suite, five-star luxury hotel. The project is anchored by a bold arc-shaped entrance lobby facade, delivered using the VS1-G facade system to achieve a refined, frameless appearance with high structural integrity and performance. Visitors are welcomed by automatic frameless sliding doors integrated with the VS1 aluminum portal system.

The VS1-G structural fins are 21.52mm (.085“) thick. The fins support 21.9mm (0.86”) thick laminated face glass panes, which are 1850mm (6’) wide and 4.8m (15'9") high, the full span of the facade.

The system was designed to deliver clean sightlines, precise alignment, and reliable performance under hotel-grade usage, while reinforcing the building’s luxury identity. The VS1-G system enabled long, visually uninterrupted glass spans while maintaining clarity, strength, and constructability. The result is a seamless glass envelope that enhances transparency, arrival experience, and architectural presence.
