Vision Enclosure Walls
Summarize the project's program, features, and achievements: Vision Enclosure Walls, Inc. wanted their new headquarters in Carrollton, Texas, to showcase the glass and glazing they are known for. Being in the middle of an established industrial park made for limited casting beds; however, everyone utilized the space efficiently. During the design phase, we selected tilt-up construction for the warehouse portion, and we used eight C-shaped panels to anchor Vision Enclosures’ signature glass & glazing on the office. Each C-shaped column highlights the up & down exterior lighting.
What obstacles were overcome related to the schedule, budget, program, specification, site, etc. on this project? Limited workspace due to being in the middle of an established industrial park
