Case Studies: Public Buildings
The Maggie's Centre, Kirkaldy, Fife
Architects: Zaha Hadid Architects
The Maggie's Centre in Kirkaldy, Fife designed by Zaha Hadid Architects is the practice's first completed UK project. Selected by project architect Tiago Correia, the centre is illuminated by 21 Special triangular rooflights measuring 100 x 100 x 90cm. Their slim profiles, fine lines and high-quality, energy-efficient designs were all part of their appeal. In consultation with Correia, the design team at the Rooflight Company created rooflights that not only brighten the interior, but also work in a cohesive way with the unusual exterior.
