Hobhouse Court
Project Location: Hobhouse Court, London UK.
​
Scope of work: DesignFit was tasked with designing a contemporary façade solution for the prestigious Hobhouse Court project in London, UK. The project involved the integration of Schüco's innovative curtain wall, window, and door systems to create a visually striking and high-performance building envelope.

Design and Materials Selection
-
Schüco Curtain Wall System: A bespoke curtain wall system was designed to meet the specific requirements of the project, incorporating a combination of fixed and operable glazing.
-
High-Performance Glass: Low-E glass with advanced coatings was selected to optimize thermal performance and reduce energy consumption.
-
Aluminium Profiles: Durable and weather-resistant aluminium profiles were used to create a sleek and minimalist aesthetic.
Fabrication Drawings
To ensure accurate fabrication and installation, detailed fabrication drawings were created for:
-
Pressed Metal: Precision-engineered pressed metal components were designed to connect the curtain wall elements and provide structural support.
-
Brackets: Customized brackets were fabricated to secure the curtain wall system to the building structure.
