Martin Luther King, Jr. Justice Building

Celebrating an icon of liberty and unification, the Essex County Justice Building is a testament to the legacy of the Reverend Dr Martin Luther King Jr. A place for the community to come together, the design of the building needed to be both functional and inspirational. Custom ALPOLIC metal composite materials elegantly frame the ethereal glass, precast concrete, and limestone facade rising from the courthouse steps.

Craig H. Neilsen Rehabilitation Hospital

Custom Metallic and Mica finishes from #ALPOLIC work together on the envelope of the Craig H. Neilsen Rehabilitation Hospital at the University of Utah to create a welcoming environment that also harmonizes with its natural surroundings. The shining copper color and pearlescent warmth of the Mica metal composite materials evoke a sense of calm and comfort.  Use of these finishes is particularly noticeable on the large canopy at the hospital's entrance. Paired together, the colors extend from the building to shield incoming patients and visitors from the sun, and draw them into a similarly designed place of solace and healing.
