Desipite appearances, Coor Hall is not entirely vision glass. Most of the building is constructed as "shadow box."

Selective Extrusions

These mock-ups show the unique extrustions home to each facade.

Site Context

Coor Hall sits at the northwest corner of the Arizona State Campus and is the gateway to Mill Avenue.

The cavity in the shadow boxes becomes a greenhouse during the day and is radiating heat to the interior.

Ventilate

By ventilating the facade, the hot air has a place to go and will cool down the shadowboxes with fresh air from below.
