The New York Times Building is an iconic 6 million sf, 52 story high rise office tower in mid-town Manhattan. Working with MechoShade, Loisos + Ubbelohde was responsible for shading protocols and controls to recognize site shading from surrounding buildings. The New York Times Headquarters is clad with a highly transparent glass curtain wall and exterior white ceramic pipes. To control sun penetration and provide visual comfort while optimizing energy efficiency, automated diffusing shades are controlled in response to sky conditions, the movement of the sun, shade patterns and brightness. Daylighting and shading deliver measured lighting electrical use at 0.37 watts/sf with high occupant satisfaction. Previous Project | Next Project |
