Fireframes® Curtainwall Series fire-rated frames allow for large, multi-story expanses of fire-rated glass in interior and exterior applications. This design flexibility made it possible for GBBN Architects to incorporate expansive sections of fire-rated glazing within the stairwell, extending the line of sight for occupants and connecting them to the clinic’s various floors. The system’s slender profiles also help take the visual focus off the fire-rated frames and center it on the stairwell’s vibrant walls and warm wood treatments, which reflect the youthful energy of the pediatric clinic.
