Woerden Townhall

Description of the project
The old town hall of Woerden was in poor condition. The renovation by Architectenbureau Cepezed B.V. was focused on modernization and energy efficiency, resulting in a light, spacious building with an A+++ energy rating. Openness, spatial experience and connection are core themes of the project. Large glass sections in the new facades provide a strong connection with nature and the surroundings.
Guardian SunGuard® eXtra Selective (SNX) 60 was chosen for the glazed façade. This triple silver coated solar control glass offers color consistency and low internal reflections. SNX 60 has a highly desirable, neutral and transparent appearance – regardless of the viewing angle. Internal colored reflection is optimized, adding a neutral tone to the glass when viewed from the inside of the building. Due to its world-class selectivity, SNX 60 lets in 60% of natural daylight combined with excellent solar control. This helps to reduce energy needs due to a lower demand for artificial lighting and air conditioning.
