In 1993 a local authority administration building required renovation. The architect was asked to design a new glass entrance to the building. The new south east facing glass entrance was designed to incorporate twenty four solar panels angled at a 54° incline. The thirty square metres of solar panels generate around 2,000 units of electricity per year. The architect designed the solar facade to enable light to pass through the facade, thus ensuring adequate natural lighting in the winter months as well as using the solar panels to help reduce overheating in the summer months.
