Rigidized® Metals Corporation Provides Security, Durability and Aesthetics for the Symphony Park Parking Garage in Las Vegas

Rigidized® Metals’ panels in pattern 1UN on InvariMatte®, perforated, skin the exterior facade of the Symphony Park parking garage, a new build expansion, in Las Vegas, NV. The deep texture offers a one-of-a-kind aesthetic with the durability of a deep texture, combined with the natural cleanability of the InvariMatte® micro texture. Additionally, the pattern combination reduces glare in this notoriously sunny environment.

The Rigidized® Metals panels work together well with the colorful metal façade of the existing portion of the parking structure while visually cleaning up the expansion and hiding the concrete of the parking garage structure.

The panels simplified and streamlined the visual impact of a three level parking garage extension by skinning the exterior of the expansion while also allowing for enough airflow to qualify as an open garage. The end product is a clean exterior look that changes throughout the day depending on time of day, lighting, weather, viewing angle, and distance.

“The difference in how [the panels] look in the morning versus how they look in the afternoon is wild. How the light hits these panels can change it from looking uniform and solid, to picking up and highlighting the texture and translucency really well,” says Alex Klenk, of CSD Architecture. “The InvariMatte® finish also dramatically reduces the sun glare, which tones down the panels a lot and you can just stare at them and enjoy them without getting blinded.”
