Composite Facade – Fletcher Hotel – Amsterdam

Composite Facade - Fletcher Hotel - Amsterdam: Another composite facade for an iconic building. The high-profile and recognizable from afar FletcherHotel along highway A2 near Amsterdam, features a cylindrical and curved composite facade. Benthem Crouwel Architects designed a 60-meter-high tower, whose round shape catches the eye from all sides.

It is an exciting design both by day and by night, where it is not clear how many floors the hotel houses.

The composite facade of the Fletcher Hotel in Amsterdam is a so-called double facade, where the glass outer facade works together with a structural inner facade. The structural composite façade elements have a limited weight, but fully support the glass shell.

Interior and exterior façade in 1 element: the curved composite façade elements have a size of 7 x 3.5 m and a thickness of 150 mm. The round windows are structurally glued in a double-curved plane and consist of insulated glass.

Another novelty is the finish of the façade elements: it is made entirely of foil. The facade area is 2,850 m² for the curved composite interior facade.
