The fences which border the Ayala Triangle Gardens has dita trees, orange jasmine
and podocarpus hedges, buho and yellow-striped bamboos. The pathways are lined
with palms-royal, African oil, Manila palm and fishtails.The garden was provided with
ornamental shrubs such as Eugenia, spry picarras, pittosphorum, Thailand
scheffleras, dwarf sensiviera and miniature pandakakis in vibrant mixes of different
colors which are arranged according to height. The arrangement lead to contrast in
color. The garden is scattered with mango, bignay, bangkal, talisay, kalumpit,
alibangbang, raintree, Thailand acacia, caimito, rubber tree, palosanto and Talisay
bagras trees.
The glass for the new wing's curtainwall matches the original glass curtainwall
system in performance and aesthetic. "For an exact match, we supplied the same,
low-E, blue-green, insulated glass that we previously supplied to the existing
Justice Facility," says Cameron Scripture, sales representative for Viracon, Inc.
Complementing the glass in color and in performance, Linetec provided the thermal
barrier system and the Sea Foam Green painted finish on Wausau's curtainwall and
window systems. "The multi-level thermal barrier contribute to our HP-Wall's best-inclass thermal performance," explains Kevin Robbins, Wausau's regional sales
manager. "In addition to helping keep occupants comfortable, this works in

conjunction with the building's exterior solar fins to reduce the demands placed on
the building's HVAC capacity and lower operating costs."

The system's durable finishes also lowers maintenance and associated costs. On the
curtainwall's interior, a baked enamel finish was used to withstand the daily use of a
public facility. For the aluminum framing exposed to Colorado's challenging climate,
the curtainwall's exterior was painted with the most weather-resistant of all
architectural finishes, a 70% Kynar coating.
This same coating and color also was applied by Linetec to the Justice Center's
storefront and entrance systems, supplied by Tubelite Inc. "The doors feature
wide stiles, which work well with heavy traffic," says Rick Middleton, Tubelite's
sales representative. "They can take the punishment of constant use demanded by
a growing community."
Just avoid the traffic and gas fumes on the side of Makati Ave/ The Atrium.
