A tall order from Senior
Senior Architectural Systems has supplied the fenestration package for use on the tallest residential building in Bristol.
At 26 storeys high, the residential tower block forms part of the wider Castle Park View scheme.
The development features a main block and a 10-storey tower, creating a total of 375 one and two bedroom apartments. Senior has supplied its slimline SF52 aluminium curtain wall system and patented, low U-value Pure aluminium windows and doors for use across the scheme, working alongside specialist installer Denval, architects Chapman Taylor, and contractor, Bouygues UK.
Created following the extensive regeneration of a brownfield area and built on the former site of an ambulance station, sustainability is a key part of the design of the Castle Park View and the residential scheme has achieved a level four standard in the Code for Sustainable Homes certification.
According to Senior, its SF52 aluminium curtain wall system and Part L compliant Pure aluminium windows and doors are ‘highly durable’ and fully recyclable.
The Castle Park development also includes the UK’s largest water source heat pump, located at the nearby Castle Park Energy Centre, as its main heat source.
