Metalline, an architectural metalwork specialist based in the UK, has created a range of bespoke 3D twisted metal fins for upcoming Minories Hotel in Aldgate, London.

The aluminium fins will form the façade of the hotel and will clad the existing precast frame, creating a bridge between the frame and the unitised glazing.

They were designed by project architect ACME architects in collaboration with The Murphy Façade Studio to create shading for the hotel's occupants, as well as create an iconic architectural landmark. They were developed by Metalline in partnership with façade contractor Colorminium.

Measuring 42m (138ft) in height, the fins were created at Metalline's production facility in Cannock, Staffordshire, and, due to the height, had to be manufactured in 3.5 m (11 ft) lengths, with a depth of 0.8 m (3ft). The fins were assembled using a combination of aluminium stud welding and bonding techniques developed by Metalline. They were finished in dark and light bronze PPC to create an anodised effect.
