Palladium Shopping Mall, Istanbul, Turkey

Architect: Ergun Mimarlik
Type of works: design, manufacture and installation of structural steel systems and laminated glazing.

The Palladium invites visitors with an eye-catching glass spherical dome, which spans from a spacious entrance to a food court on the fourth floor. To solve the issue of seismic movement, Novum engineered bottom and wall supports for this structure, which hinge and slide. More than 400 trapezoidal glass panels provide the cladding. The insulating tempered glass panes have a protective UV-coating, causing the sphere to have a Light Blue tint, further adding to the appeal of the structure.

BK and KK powder-coated mild steel structural systems were used, along with ECG laminated, insulating glass with low-E coating.
