Case Study

Reflectance Field

Our Solutions Studio® team collaborated with Susan Narduli Studio to create this sonic sculpture suspended within the interior stairwell extending the full height of the University of Oregon's new Tykeson Hall. Dubbed Reflectance Field, it is composed of 70 cables spanning 4 stories high, supporting 1200 static and dynamic parts, all tuned to provide variations of the scales C, E, G, A, and D. As an interactive expression of "chance music," some elements of the composition are left to chance, while some is left to the determination of its "performers."

Case Study

UNLV

Carpenter Sellers Del Gatto Architects designed the new Hospitality Hall of UNLV's William F. Harrah College of Hotel Administration. Arktura worked with Del Gatto to develop the Secare® facade, to add texture that is visible from both outside and inside the structure, creating an impressive visual feature. Del Gatto strived to mirror the experience the students would have entering the hospitality industry as part of UNLV's premiere program in the building's architecture by creating a space that reflects the industry's finest resorts. The LEED Silver Certified Hall's glass entrance is cloaked in a Secare® facade of jagged steel tubes by Arktura. This facade contributes to the campus's eclectic presence. Still, it exudes a visually dynamic and permanent presence while simultaneously reducing the harsh desert sun's western exposure by up to 60% for its occupants.

Elmer Knopf Learning Center

A striking entrance for the Elmer Knopf Learning Center in Flint, Michigan, was created with Vapor® Pixel, backlit for dramatic impact day and night. Arktura worked in tandem with Stantec to propose the illuminated entrance for the Genesee ISD - Elmer A. Knopf Learning Center, a center-based school for students from a collective of 21 districts in Genesee county identified as Moderately Cognitively Impaired and Autistic. The final design features Arktura's cutting edge Vapor® Pixel in a glimmering effect and serves to inspire and empower students as they enter their community.

Case Study

U of A

With design spearheaded by CO Architects, the University of Arizona's Health Sciences Innovation Building provides health professionals, students, and faculty in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and public health a cutting-edge, world-class environment to work, learn, and collaborate. Acoustics and noise dampening was key to the success of the project. TP Acoustics and Arktura worked closely to deploy several acoustic solutions that have become defining elements of the massive complex. Arktura's multi-faceted origami-like SoftFold® acoustic modules, constructed from Soft Sound material, produce an added layer of visual complexity and eliminate reverberations in the large open space. Arktura's SoftFold® ceiling system was adapted to span across ceilings and walls at various angles. Additionally, the building houses rooms of various sizes for a broad range of applications, each with its unique design and acoustic challenges. Some areas called for Arktura's SoundEdge® acoustical baffles that add a pop of color to rooms while reducing the noise to spaces. The end result is a forward-thinking space that organically incorporates acoustics, thanks to special consideration taken into the design, manufacturing, and installation of its solutions. The solutions deployed by Arktura help the space live up to its goals to attract and retain the best minds in health.
