Bangor Savings Bank

The geometric glass structure provides visual drama and flair, drawing the eye upwards to appreciate its scale and symmetry.

About this Project

The crown jewel of the Bangor Savings Bank branch in Augusta, Maine is the custom 21-foot octagonal skylight dramatically situated above the third-floor atrium. Built by Crystal Structures, the nation’s only sloped glazing provider with fully in-house design, manufacturing, installation, and service capabilities, this showstopping skylight demonstrates the company’s nearly half-century of innovation in the industry.

On a practical level, the enormous 8-sided skylight floods the soaring atrium with plentiful natural light. Skylights are highly effective at reducing the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours, and this is an exceptionally large and impactful example. Aesthetically, the geometric glass structure provides visual drama and flair, drawing the eye upwards to appreciate its scale and symmetry.

For signature showpieces or straightforward illumination, Crystal Structures has the full creative and functional potential to handle any sloped glazing project.
