Millbrook Towers from Ratcliffe Street

Millbrook Street runs across the end of Ratcliffe Street. The changing colours on the facade of the block of flats are a property of the cladding. It's called 'Chameleon' cladding and is made by a company called Rockpanel. The company's website explains: "The ROCKPANEL Chameleon range is finished with a unique crystal layer which, depending on the angle from which it’s viewed and the effect of light, appears to dramatically change colour." The panels are available in four different colour-change palettes: green - light grey - pink; green - grey - pink; orange - green - brown; and purple - blue - green. http://www.rockpanel.co.uk/products/rockpanel%20chameleon
