Gilmours reimagined the façade of Hexagon Tower, transforming a brutalist landmark into a contemporary architectural statement. Working from the building’s original geometric rhythm, we developed a new sculptural panel language — prototyped, tested and refined through full-scale mock-ups to validate fit, finish and installation strategy. Each aluminium component was fabricated to tight tolerances to create the crisp junctions, deep shadow lines and interlocking forms that define the tower’s new identity. The result is a striking, light-responsive façade that honours the building’s heritage while introducing a distinctly modern expression of geometry and craftsmanship.
