The dramatic shingled glass entrance structure is supported by a sophisticated cable net with aesthetically pleasing cable clamps, provided by TriPyramid, which tension the cables.
The structure, in Tokyo’s Rappongi Hills, involved an international team of architects and engineers working with Ashahi Glass and TriPyramid. TriPyramid’s curved cable clamps use the latest in computer design and manufacturing.
