HOLE-IN-ONE It is here that Trex Commercial Products’ Track Rail™ shines as both a safety and style element. More than 2,500 linear feet of railing are featured throughout the state-of-the-art facility. Custom engineered for the Global Home, the railing system is designed and constructed with an aluminum base profile without the use of vertical balusters or posts between glass infill panels, making it ideal for enhancing sightlines. Clear 9/16-inch laminated glass railing offers unobstructed views and adds a luxurious accent to the appropriately named Grand Atrium. Nearly 300 linear feet of railing was custom engineered with 3-D laser scanning to ensure precision modeling of the distinctive shapes and contours featured along the atrium overlooks. A central staircase finished with white oak handrails cascades down to create a dynamic spatial and visual flow between successive levels while lending a warm, yet modern, look and feel. Track Rail also extends to the building’s exterior balconies, where it optimizes views of the natural Floridian surroundings.
