Today we started hoisting the frames for Shell's C30 building in The Hague - a milestone in the process and another step closer to completion. #workinprogress Read more about this gridshell here: ow.ly/sLp450C2TjN De Vries en Verburg Shell ABT Turner & Townsend

Last Friday: time for the #reciprocalframe, part of the gridshell roof for Shell's C30 building. Working with two cranes simultaneously, the frame was placed in 7 hours. #realizingchallengingarchitecture with De Vries en Verburg #ridderkerkskraanwagenbedrijf #mverschoorbv

What a difference glass makes! The insulated glass panels of the #gridshell roof of Shell's C30 building each are a unique parallelogram, installed in a twisted shape by pressure on site. ow.ly/IHy750DvdBG #realizingchallengingarchitecture De Vries en Verburg #mverschoorbv
