Objectives

LSM architects designed the new Pillsbury Law Offices with a bright and open aesthetic.  The objective for the cafeteria was to provide unobstructed views to the sky with a frameless skylight.

Approach

LSM chose an Insight single slope skylight based on its clean lines, and structural glass construction. The skylight is anchored to a sloped curb on the roof to allow for natural water runoff, while adding an interesting geometry to the interior space, which is highlight in a bold orange.

Results

The simplicity of Insight single slope skylight provides a very dramatic and open feel to the cafeteria space below.  Natural daylighting from the skylight makes the room glow, while its insulated glass provides energy efficiency.
