A dramatic atrium roof, conceived as a shattering star and clad in Nordic Royal golden copper alloy from Aurubis Architectural, defines an innovative new hotel complex in Norway. Architects Space Group set about redefining the atrium typology with their design for the new Clarion Hotel in Trondheim – one of Scandinavia's largest convention hotels. Slab-like private room wings are orientated to capture surrounding views and converge to generate a thoroughly
three-dimensional central atrium with a complex, faceted roof form. The cascad- ing, deconstructed golden star is clad both inside and out with Nordic Royal – an alloy of copper and aluminium with a long-lasting golden colour.

enq.174 Green roof ready for London golf course
Gradient Flat Roofing has worked on a unique project with a leading London golf course to create a bespoke green roofing solution. Richmond Park Golf Course, located close to the picturesque Richmond Park and the National Tennis Centre, looked to create an eco-friendly roofing system that minimised environmental impact while blending in seamlessly with the natural beauty of the surrounding golf course. Recticel’s Eurothane Silver foam board was the natural choice. A practical benefit of
Eurothane Silver is its flexibility in liquid applied applications as well as an exceptionally low thermal conductivity – measuring just 0.0023W/mK.
