JJ Bean at CBC Studio
The project included the sloped green roof over a laminated timber roof structure, the glass panel cladding over the laminated wood wall structure, and waterproofing of the CBC studio roof that is under the JJ Bean building.
Other aspects of the building include a more conventional wood cladding over rainscreen wall assemblies.
