Façade cladding with HAVER Architectural Mesh.
MAISON DES SPORTS TALENCE, FRANCE
The Maison des Sports, designed by the architect´s office JL Faye,
is located in the heart of the French town Talence. The architects
wanted to give the building a modern look – inside and outside
and chose the stainless steel cladding with HAVER Architectural
Mesh LARGO-NOVA 2034 for the exterior façade. The combination
of round and flat wires gives the mesh type a very extensive
appearance, which reflects light homogenously. With an open area
of 58% the mesh also ac ts as effective sun shading for the premises
behind it.

In operation, all feature gas-air heat exchangers
where the incoming air is superheated then directed
to both primary & secondary combustion ports and
door glass, giving very clean burn and ‘airwash’. The
refractory metal used for the firebox allows even
corrosive fuels such as driftwood to be burnt without
affecting their lifespan. Boilers when fitted are made
from 3mm+ stainless steel and pressure tested to over
twice required mains working pressure.
