August 2017 – Enclos

UCSD Jacobs Medical Center Drone Footage

Jacobs Medical Center adds 245 new inpatient beds and three new hospitals to the UC San Diego Health System’s La Jolla campus. Alongside Cannon Design and general contractor Kitchell, Enclos provided comprehensive design/build services for the medical center’s building facade which includes 200,000 sqft of flat and curved unitized curtainwall with undulating sunshade features. This video summarizes several of the completed project’s key enclosure features.

Pacific Gate Drone Footage

Enclos field crews’ monumental efforts above Downtown San Diego peaked earlier this summer with the dramatic installation of Pacific Gate’s crowning curtainwall unit. The tower was designed by Kohn Pederson Fox Associates to mirror the fluid forms of the shoreline and rises 41 stories to a height of 458´. Bosa Development Corp. is behind the city’s latest luxury condo residential tower.

KINETICS: Vertical Lift Walls

A great way to introduce ADAPTABILITY into a building program – either in function or for access to natural ventilation – is by implementing kinetic facade features. KINETIC ENCLOSURES is a series of animations that will explore various forms of motion and mechanisms that drive the movement.
