Project Description
A major retrofit of the Children’s Hospital of San Antonio features a channel glass façade by Bendheim Wall Systems. The vibrant, ceramic-fritted glass units rise along the building’s 10 stories and a 2-story-tall ‘lantern’ cupola. The striking colors of the glass are visible from a distance in the day or night, while the smart technical design of the system makes this project truly stand out by answering a number of unique design challenges. It is the first and only installation of vertically-unitized, multi-colored ceramic-fritted channel glass in North America.
Illumination of The Children's Hospital of San Antonio
The redesigned hospital exterior seeks to improve the patient experience. The translucent glass channels are visible from within the rooms, bringing children and families comfort and a sense of playfulness through color. The positive experience of the space reflects current attitudes and research into enhanced healing through sensitive clinical architecture and design.
From the Architect:
“The close collaboration between Overland and Bendheim in the development of the colored glass panel system was key to overcoming the technical challenges of installing on existing facades with numerous unique conditions. Bendheim’s technical expertise and willingness to roll up their sleeves to help figure out solutions for each application also gave the design team and contractor the confidence to lobby for the colored panels as an integral component of the project.” — Kris Feldmann, Overland Partners
From the Glazier:
“Our experience with Bendheim on The Children’s Hospital of San Antonio was nothing short of great. Delivery schedules were met and the quality of the finished product was never an issue. Bendheim helped us with the pre-assembled panel design, which saved us thousands on the installation and allowed us to beat the schedule.” — Alan Sharp, CEO of Sharp Glass
