Rainscreen
& metalwork

Cassette and plank rainscreen facades, perforated feature panels, soffits, fascias and bespoke flashings — the parts of the envelope that people actually stand and look at.

Overview

Where the envelope
stops being cladding
and starts being
architecture.

A rainscreen facade is a drained and back-ventilated system hanging off a carrier rail, and it lives or dies on the setting out. Every cassette has a joint on all four sides, every joint is visible, and a 3mm cumulative error is a 30mm error by the far corner of the elevation.

The Leeds Bradford facade below runs six colours and two perforation patterns across a full elevation to a repeating set-out. That is not a cladding job — it is a panel schedule, a survey, a carrier system and a sequence, and then it is a cladding job.
