Description of the project

The premier showcase for the arts in Canada and situated in the heart of the nation’s capital on Confederation Square, the NAC displays a geometric order in the Brutalist style that made it a fortress for the arts. A marquee tower with SunGuard® SuperNeutral® 70/41 is designed to extend the geometry of the original architecture into the 21st century marks a new entrance and establishes a transparency and connection with the city.

SunGuard® SuperNeutral® 70/41 is a Guardian Glass product produced in Europe. For additional information please contact us.
