  • THIRD SKIN!

    N

  • The Third Skin is composed of:

    #1 – opaque elements

    #2 – transparent elements

    #3 – the details that join them

  • The Third Skin is supposed to:

    #1 – Manage climate (heat, cold, sun, light, breezes)

    #2 – Be durable

    #3 – Look good!

  • Heat Transfer Mechanisms

  • There are many proprietary systems to choose from when you are detailing. But the basic idea is the same. You are bolting to the slab edge and providing flexibility for the installation for some adjustment in vertical height and horizontal distance from the slab.
