We're pleased to hear that the Visitor Pavilion at Agent's Brent Cross South development has won a RIBA London Award:
Xylotek was responsible for the technical design of the CLT and glulam structure, seeking to best deploy them within a brief for demountability and re-use. We worked closely with architects Moxon and project engineers Expedition to detail the structure, its connections, and interfaces - including with the facade which includes a pre-aged larch cladding system which we helped to specify.
As the RIBA journey article describes:
"the building serves as an exemplar of CLT and glulam design. With its predominant use of off-site fabricated timber as a structural, finishing and weathering material to contribute to carbon sequestration, it is often used as a demonstration piece for other designers".
