Steel Perforated Screen Wall Panels Give Parking Deck Unique Look

The new Wake Technical Community College North Campus parking deck in Raleigh, N.C., was constructed near a wooded area at the end of the campus. The design goal was for the building to have a look to contrast with its surroundings while reflecting the beauty of the natural habitat.

Tzu Chen, AIA, of BBH Design in Raleigh, N.C., specified screened wall panels to help achieve the aesthetic goals, all while staying under budget. Screen wall panels minimize the amount of sunlight and UV rays hitting vehicles inside. MORIN provided its MR-36S stainless steel perforated screened wall panels for the project. Stainless steel offers a resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance and a look that will not change.
