This glazed canopy spaceframe gives a clean, sharp lined finishing touch to the entranceway to Bell Laboratories Research Facilities. One unique feature is the use of only two columns to support the spaceframe. The result is an exciting design that makes the spaceframe appear as if it is floating in space. The Geo*Hub is advantageous in that the unused ears on the hub can be removed.
