Structural solar shading for office building DCM combines design and functionality

DCM’s new headquarters in the region of Antwerp bears witness to an exceptional piece of architecture. The unique rear façade is fully glazed to allow maximum daylight in during the winter. But what about overheating during the hot summer months? The solution for this project was the use of smart, sunlight-controlled architectural solar shading. The architect deliberately chose horizontally positioned DucoSun Wing louvre blades.
