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.

Jen-Col Construction Corporate Office
Building exteriors make for a great opportunity to extend a brand’s image, which is what ONPA Architects accomplished for the Jen-Col Construction Corporate Office in Alberta, Canada. The company’s prior corporate office was located in Stony Plain, but when they outgrew the space they chose to move their headquarters to Acheson, in a new facility that would inspire, motivate and welcome visitors and staff.
