Material on the south side. Too bad there isn't any sunlight this morning, but even in the grayest crappiest lighting the material looks promising on the concave portion.

 

[DiscoStu]

So is the material on this side of the building different than what's on the back? That would certainly be welcome.

 

[Mountain Man]

It looks the same to me.

 

[Roaring Flames]

I'm more worried about what material they are using for the roof of the canopy right now. Will it be copper coloured or black?

I’m going to say black or white. Doesn’t make $ sense to have a one off roof material/colour and any repairs in the future $$$$

Here is the latest render. It shows a bit of the canopy roof. I am not sure what the rest of the roof looks like (other than what I said previously - that a lot of thought has gone into the view from Scotsman's Hill - so it will not be ugly).

 

[Mountain Man]

The renders show the cladding on the roof, I can see that being VE'd out. I would hope the breezeway arm is at least clad, the rest of the roof can be a membrane.

 

[Superflux]

The canopy is a standing seam metal roof which is colour matched to the cladding.

I think it's the same material, but it might look better on a concaved curve. Here's hoping.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

The overhang roof will be the copper-esque stuff. The primary roof likely won’t be, but that’s fine as it is completely not in the field of view even from Scotsman.

11:00am this morning. The material on the concave portion looks better than material on the flat portion IMO.

Hard to tell if they are the same panels as the ones in the back. We can official declare that they will not be metallic like the tiles on the NMC or Royal Oak YMCA, but maybe the front panels will have a little more sheen than the panels on the backside

 

[Surrealplaces]

The concave section holds some promise of looking good.

 

[DiscoStu]

It's just a little brown... it's still good, it's still good! It's just a little dull... it's still good, it's still good!

 

[The Familia]

That one darker panel is messing up my OCD….
