The 2012 Olympics transformed a large area of East London into a spectacular sporting venue where the worlds best athletes competed for gold. The London Olympic games were heralded as one of the best ever undertaken by any country and it is a tribute to London and its population for its huge success.
The games venue has now been transformed into a lasting legacy for the city with some of the best sporting facilities in London and the South East. The athletes accommodation used for the games has now been transformed into affordable housing of the highest standards, close to the huge Westfield shopping centre. Aluprof aluminium door, window and curtain wall systems were specified on some of the residential blocks as their approach differs from other systems companies. Aluprof offer a bespoke design service working in conjunction with dealer and specifier to exactly suit the architect’s vision.
Plot 14 of the athletes village was completed by Aluprof dealer Glass & ALU CAD Limited. The bespoke solutions, developed in close cooperation between Aluprof and Glass & AluCAD, complied with the requirements of accommodation for the athletes both during the Games and conversion to affordable homes after the Games. Window details were developed specifically for the project which include, integrated frame shadow gaps with EPDM channels, hidden vent systems and a door developed specifically for the project, which is not available in any alternative system range. Development, fabrication and installation was completed on time by Aluprof’s dealer, Glass & ALU CAD Ltd, for main contractor Lend Lease.
All Aluprof systems are designed, fabricated and installed by selected, specially trained companies across the UK. Details on the companies bespoke solutions can be found on the Project Specific and Bespoke Solutions brochure.
