Dri-Design Wall Panels were utilized to create a cohesive, welcoming look both inside the terminal and out.

Design-build projects for the public sector always come with specific requirements with little room for flexibility.

The choice of insulated metal panels (IMPs) from Metl-Span helped meet those goals.

Just like the original owner of the building one hundred years earlier, the owner of the Mosinee Brewing Company had a vision for what her building could be – a craft brewery, taproom, outdoor beer garden and event space – and how it could help revive her local community. With the help of products from Star Building Systems, that vision has come to life.

The usually busy Fort Hays State University campus was closer to a ghost town when the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March. Students were attending classes online and athletic events were canceled.

The 2020-21 school year is not like any other, leaving some educational buildings completely or nearly empty.

An exploration of the complex reveals curves at the entrance to the kitchen, within the cafeteria, made from Flex-C Trac from Flex-Ability Concepts.

The Shirley Ryan AbilityLab recently added a new outpatient facility in Burr Ridge, IL. The 25,000-sq.-ft. facility is topped by a unique, standing-seam metal roof from Petersen, with angled panels that create a vision of wings in flight – and generate room for clerestory windows that help fill the interior with natural daylight.

Inspired by the enduring, metal-paneled roof designs of Europe, homeowner Farhad Kazmian envisioned a curving zinc-tiled roof to crown his custom-built 5,300-square-foot, two-story residence.

Located in the heart of Detroit, District Detroit is the Motor City’s literal epicenter of professional sports and live entertainment.

And constructed completely with metal building components, featuring products from Star Building Systems.

Home2 Suites by Hilton Chicago River North was designed for travelers who want to maintain their normal routine.

There are worse things than being stuck at home during a pandemic, especially for the residents of Elements, a luxury Garden Communities development in Irvine, CA.

Freeport is a village in the town of Hempstead, Nassau County, New York, on the South Shore of Long Island.

The U.S. Olympic Museum, showcasing the innumerable accomplishments of American athletes at the Games, opened in Colorado Springs, Colorado on July 30, 2020.

There's nothing like a little fresh air. Those charged with designing Building 40 on the campus of pharmaceutical company Genentech in South San Francisco certainly knew that.
