Missouri's Loews Kansas City Hotel is the first full-service luxury hotel to open downtown in more than 30 years. Rising 24 stories and encompassing 800 rooms, its crisp, modern, minimalist look was designed by Cooper Carry and brought to life with curtainwall, window wall, entrance and interior aluminum framing systems.

Tubelite Inc. has expanded its ForceFront Blast product family to include a full range of high-security curtainwall, storefront, entrance door systems for low- and mid-rise government, health care, educational and commercial building projects.

Defined as the ability to do or produce something without wasting materials, time, or energy, in today’s commercial architecture, a building’s long-term operational efficiency is far more impactful than any efficiency achieved in design or construction.

Diamond Schmitt’s innovative architectural design includes a four-story, skylit atrium; a 650-seat auditorium and connecting helical staircase; and a U-shaped block of daylit residential and study spaces.

Blending the visual line between fire-rated and non-rated curtain walls has long proved challenging for architects. For years, fire-rated frames were bulky, wraparound affairs. While functional at blocking heat and keeping people safe, few offerings closely replicated the sleek frame profiles heralded in modern curtain wall design.

As regulations and demands increase for energy efficiency in all facets of modern society, the building industry has found itself in a balancing act when it comes to the exterior.
