A new speculative office development in Manchester known as Fabrica, draws admiring glances from onlookers, thanks to its striking external screening solution, from the UK’s leading specialist, Levolux.Fabrica, named in honour of the area’s textile heritage, provides 21,000 sq ft of BREEAM Excellent office space, arranged over five floors. Developed by Royal London Asset Management and designed by 5Plus architects, Fabrica is part of a wider regeneration project in central Manchester.The imposing office building, which sits adjacent to a new 150-room Ibis hotel, stands out from neighbouring buildings with its gold perforated exterior. As is customary with modern office developments, there is an abundance of full-height glazing to maximise daylight levels. External window treatment was required on exposed elevations to increase privacy and comfort levels for occupants, and to create a distinctive external aesthetic.For more information – http:\/\/www.levolux.com\/L_case_studies\/fabrica-manchester.htm<\/p>\n
