International Components Form Unique Curtainwall System

Glass procured from Shanghai, extruded in Kuala Lumpur, and fabricated in Singapore has produced the distinctive curtainwall of the Viceroy Hotel – with no two pieces the same shape or size.

History Juxtaposed with Modern Style

The east side of the existing brick façade was removed, preserved and reinstalled, combining the traditional, historical façade with a new modern glass curtainwall system, window wall and brick masonry enclosure on the 4th to 18th floors.
