Sparkling Hill Resort Vernon B.C.
A focal point of the resort is the entrance lobby, a three-story glass atrium that sparkles like a crystal. The complexity of replicating the multifaceted twinkle of crystal, in a span of over 18 meters on a mountaintop, posed significant design challenges. An innovative design was created incorporating the use of tension cables and point-supported glass hardware to sustain over 90 uniquely shaped pieces of glass, angled at different directions in the 3D space.
