Project Story
This confident glass structure in the City of London is a masterpiece in architectural glass and we installed some of its key features.
With its awesome cantilevered exo-structure supporting eight floors of virtually column-free, open plan office space inside, Cannon Place is one of the most innovative architectural structures within the Square Mile.
It’s a building that’s all about glass and all about light. Rather symbolically, one of our key contributions to it was a spectacular light wall that illuminates the entrance to Cannon Place Station. And that wall isn’t just for show. It communicates the building’s modern, high status, high spec qualities in a refined way.

At the front of the entrance area, a frameless roof element extends the façade where the column heads and ceiling jointly support a section of glass roof, almost invisibly.
