What Pulp leadership says

“These projects extend far beyond the decorative glass we’re known for in transportation, civic, and educational environments,” says Kirk Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Pulp Studio. “They mark an exciting evolution for our company. With unmatched innovation, design, quality, and service, we’ve crafted custom façades for some of the world’s most iconic luxury brands. Pulp Studio is stronger than ever—and we’re just getting started.”

Project details

The Bal Harbour Shops attract a global clientele of the socialites, fashionistas and celebrities. Within this setting, the Van Cleef & Arpels boutique highlights the jeweler’s craftsmanship, blending lush, tropical elements inspired by Miami with the elegance of its French heritage.

The entryway features a gold façade by Pulp Studio that is adorned with live flowers and greenery. Pulp Studio used a complicated, multi-layer metallic fabric that illuminates the exterior of the building in shimmering gold. Of the 26 pieces of glass used for the project, four featured a black D2G border. The following glass specifications were used to create this extraordinary exterior: ¼-inch low iron heat strengthened, .060 Clear SGP, .060 Clear SGP, ½-inch low iron tempered, .120 Clear SGP and ½-inch low iron heat strengthened.
