AGC Interpane Architectural Glass: 8 Bishopsgate, London

“8 Bishopsgate” is a 50-storey, 204 meter high skyscraper in the City of London, prominently located on the corner of Bishopsgate and Leadenhall Street.

The office building, developed by Stanhope for Mitsubishi Estate London and designed by Arup and Wilkinson Eyre, achieves the best energy efficiency class “EPC A” and has been awarded the “BREEAM Outstanding” certificate. Photovoltaics on the roof provide sustainable electricity. Urban greenery on roof terraces and throughout the building provides a high level of biodiversity and comfort.

A double-skin active façade minimizes the building’s CO2 footprint and the need for air conditioning – with a special steel skeleton, solar control and low-e glazing from AGC Interpane Architectural Glass and light-controlled shading.
