Summary

The Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe is one of the most recognisable buildings in London. Designed by the legendary architect Sir Norman Foster, the 41-storey tower features a unique spiral glass façade and tapered top. To help reduce sound transmission across its world-class office spaces, CBX Flexible Acoustic Barrier was installed within common ceiling voids.
