Architect: SmithGroupJJR
Glazier: Edwards Glass Company
Designed by Albert Kahn in 1915, the historic Detroit Athletic Club is a fixture of the city. When recently adding an all glass atrium, glazier Edwards Glass Company sought out the architectural system capabilities of Glass+Metal Craft.
G+MC’s Fulcrum Architectural Design Assist Division designed and engineered the fully custom, point-supported, 20-foot glass curtain walls for maximum transparency. The entrance features all glass doors, and clean 90 degree corners, enveloping visitors in stunning floor-to-ceiling glass.
G+MC’s Cuda Metals Division designed and provided the custom stainless steel hardware for the curtain wall’s point supported system, along with the stainless metalwork surrounding the vestibule’s portal.
