The roller façade by Barton Myers [199]
In case [189] we already published some retractable façades by Barton Myers. To demonstrate the variety and richness of filters that may form these kind of façades. We publish here another of his studio-houses, where the inward retractable glazing is complemented with an exterior metallic roller shutter. The main objective of this second element is to improve fire protection, but obviously it also increases security and can be used as opaque protection to reduce sunrays and lighting inside.
