to use one of the most in-demand decorative AGC products,<br />
Lacobel, a high-quality float glass for interiors, is<br />
groundbreaking for Russia. A ventilated facade system is<br />
traditionally used when glazing the exterior of a building.<br />
Its use in an interior is unusual and the unique design project<br />
was created specifically for Sberbank. It took a couple<br />
of months to convince the client, Sberbank, to use glass<br />
<strong>MosBuild</strong> Fenestration<br />
to finish the interior. The functional features of glass, its<br />
advantages in relation to artificial stone and other materials,<br />
and its non-combustibility, ease of use and elegance<br />
weighed the balance in favour of this option. The project<br />
was made more difficult by the short timeframe given<br />
to complete the order. Topglass had only two and a half<br />
months to build the structure and fit over 1300 panels of<br />
AGC coloured glass. But the result has surpassed all expectations<br />
– the space has been much improved by the glass<br />
and stands out in a completely new way. This method of<br />
wall decoration has never before been used in Russia.<br />
