The Construction Source

Solutions on budget As recent examples of what DESA is capable of, Fred points to the company’s work on a couple different landmark projects, including City Centre 3 in Surrey, BC, and the BLUME Towers and the deVille Towers in Calgary, Alberta. CityCentre3 is locatedinSurrey’s Health and Technology District, right in the heart of the city and adjacent to popular landmarks and amenities. DESA’s scope included the fabrication and installation of the DESA 2500HP Curtain Wall System on the ground floor, Unitized Curtain Wall on levels 2-through-10, glass canopies, sunshades and aluminum doors and entrances. On that project, Fred says that DESA was given the opportunity toworkcloselywiththearchitect, and they were given quite a few design challenges to overcome. For example, the architect had the idea for a glass ceiling below an outward-leaning CurtainWall on the corner of a building. In working with the architect, DESA Glass designed the glass ceiling which even had integrated LED lighting. DECEMBER 2022
