The Porsche Design Tower stands tall on beautiful Sunny Isles Beach in Miami. The 60-story tower is the brand's first residential skyscraper.
Like the streamlined body of a Porsche automobile, the simplicity of the tower’s cylindrical form belies the complexity of the engineering within. Reynobond® 4mm FR Composite Material was used to clad canopies, a featured entrance wall, three ground-to-roof shear walls, that run the full height of the building; and column covers, which are nine feet in diameter and 76 feet tall. According to the panel fabricator, metal panels were specified for the building envelope to express the automotive origin of the brand. The Reynobond® Composite Material—specified in lieu of solid aluminum plate—deliver perfect flatness from the ground looking 60 stories up, and match the caliber of the luxurious, European finishes spec’d for the interior.
The panels continue the Porsche brand with two custom Steel City Silver and Graphite Gray Colorweld® 500 paint coatings. Advanced coil-coated technology provides outstanding resistance to corrosion, UV and aging.
