Smith and Williams: Friend Paper Company (Pasadena, Calif.)

The saw tooth edge of the Friend Paper Company roof creates a distinctive character for the building on the street. What is not as noticeable is the double roof system that Smith and Williams created to modulate the effect of heat and light coming into the building.
