Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Molecular Foundry

Berkeley, California, USA

The Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Molecular Foundry building is striking with its dramatic design, imaginative views and daring placement ­– with a portion of the building jutting out 45 feet over a hillside. 1600 Wall System®1 Curtain Wall was used on the building while our windows were used to improve air circulation and provide natural ventilation, helping increase occupant comfort, well-being and productivity. 500 Wide Stile Doors create a monumental visual statement and offer superior strength at the entrance.
