Reiss HQ London


Images by idiggitt.
Headquarters for fashion house Reiss in London by Squire and Partners www.squireandpartners.com is covered in a double skin facade to shade it from the south heat load. The outer skin is composed of solid acrylic that has been machined to create modeling and different degrees of translucency. The effect is an abstract transparent barcode - relevent to the function of the building behind that houses a retail outlet, offices and a cutting floor and penthouse.
