The Use Effect of Mirror Aluminum in Architecture

Mirror aluminum, as one of the new materials, is deeply loved by people in both construction and home decoration. Today, let’s take a look at the effectiveness of mirror aluminum in construction.

Vienna Steinereck Restaurant

Located in Vienna’s most beautiful Central City Park, the exterior is very fashionable and elegant, shining brightly, and at first glance, it looks like an exhibition hall. The restaurant is designed with a rota table curved wall panel that can be combined to divide dining areas of different sizes according to needs. The ceiling of the restaurant is shaped like floating contour lines, like inverted mountains and canyons, without affecting the metal rotating panels to reorganize the restaurant space.

The PALAON Research Experience Center located in Schöningen, Germany is integrated with the surrounding natural geographical environment. The reflective surface of the entire structure forms a brilliant mirror of the surrounding landscape. Its future shape creates different spaces and external spaces, while the large window opening highlights the dynamic architecture as it provides insights from nearby forests and wild horses.

Mirror aluminum refers to a sheet metal that is processed through various methods such as rolling and polishing to create a mirror like effect on the surface of the aluminum material. It is generally manufactured into coils or sheets. There are many categories of mirror aluminum, with grades ranging from high to low, including coated mirror aluminum, polished mirror aluminum, oxidized mirror aluminum, and ultra mirror aluminum.

As mirror aluminum used for building facades, it is mainly made of 5 series aluminum magnesium alloy aluminum sheets, which have low density, high tensile strength, and high elongation. In terms of processing technology, continuous casting and rolling are chosen, and the hot-rolled aluminum plate series can be used for oxidation deep processing. Its mirror effect is very good, and as a facade decoration, it can play a role in finishing the picture.
