Wire Mesh Facades and Other Benefits of Versatile Mesh Products
The new structure features a unique building facade that is made with stainless steel woven wire mesh. The facade, supplied by a premium screening specialist, was used to veil the parking structure with a series of undulating panels.
The panels were designed to enhance the surrounding neighborhood and feature a custom colorful leaf pattern. The goal of the architects at JFAK Architects was to "allow the building to breathe, provide security, and contribute to the transformation of the area as a home of the arts." With the help of the screening specialist from the early design stages to the final installation by Metallon Specialties, Inc., the new LAPD Headquarters parking structure does exactly that. A significant amount of the structure is underground, so it is hidden from the public view. What pedestrians will notice is the 14-foot long public Gallery on the southwest edge of the structure and the animation that is created when light and shadow interact with the facades.
The new five-story 300,000 square foot parking facility will house 800 LAPD employee and Motor pool cars. Also included is a mechanics' garage where the LAPD vehicles can go for fuel, washing and maintenance.
Architectural mesh systems like the one found in the LAPD parking structure offer a wide array of exciting design-oriented solutions for large concrete structural projects. Their individual aesthetic features and reliable functionality are ideal for segment, roll, or frame constructions; integrated lighting systems; acoustic systems; enclosures to conceal technical installations; and fire protection. They're also suited to veil large structures, isolating various sections of a space from others, which is one way the parking structure took advantage of them.
The parking structure also leveraged their new architectural mesh system to enhance its aesthetic appeal. Because they can be easily designed to reflect different images, the woven wire cloth elements can appear as a work of art in itself. The area in which the structure was built has a thriving arts community, so adding an organic design of leaves produced a desirable ambience with its own elegant character. This elegance helps to attract the cultured community in the Los Angeles downtown area.
Another benefit of architectural mesh systems is their acoustic qualities, though that was not a main focus in the LAPD project. The acoustic benefits were one of the main reasons the Stadttheater in Bielefeld, Germany chose an architectural mesh ceiling solution when it underwent renovation.
