Project Background

This parking garage cladding required compliance with four code requirements:

  • Qualify as public art

  • Visually screen the parking deck openings

  • Allow for exhaust ventilation

  • Required engineering to withstand Florida wind loads

This meant that the cladding project and the metal panel design needed to be managed by one company who could satisfy all of these interrelated elements. The general contractor used Parasoleil for its ability to provide a customized, turnkey solution within the project timeline and budget.

The clear anodized panels and ParaClad-100 system utilized the performance-rated "Hive" pattern with an integrated progressive MESH approach to the artwork to create the organic imagery within the ventilated cutouts.
