DUNNES STORE Dublin

We would like a large glazed roof having a central gutter, which seamlessly links up with a glazed façade and awning.” That was the instruction sent by the Irish retail chain, Dunnes Stores. For this project, Starconstruct used curved glass to accomplish the glass roof and glass façade. The showpieces are the various custom-made point fixings and the specially designed support structure to achieve maximum transparency. This consists of a hybrid structure of round steel sheaths and glassfins. This project immediately opened the doors to other projects in Ireland.
