Crestwood College in Hampshire is the latest school to install Kalwall translucent cladding. The cladding diffuses natural daylight into the upper part of the entrance to the multi-purpose sport, drama and fitness facility.
Kalwall was specified because of its ability to distribute diffused daylight evenly. Unlike conventional glazing, it eliminates shadows and glare and the stark contrasts of light and shade. Even on cloudy days, the interior is said to be flooded with natural daylight, which means less artificial lighting.
