For the new Linny Pacillo Parking Garage in downtown Anchorage, Alaska, kpb
architects needed to design a skin for the structure that would effectively
screen parked cars and headlight glare from the street below. They were
also looking for a product that would provide adequate ventilation to
the structures interior. kpb and Davis Constructors worked closely
with Construction Specialties Custom Grille Team to engineer
and test multiple grille design options that would mitigate
potential ice and snow buildup on the parking garages
exterior face. The result is a unique architectural design
that is highly effective for a severe northern climate.

headlights. C/S Vision Barriers are offered
in a wide array of patterns, varying in

C/S Refacing Systems C/S Equipment Screens
The renovation of existing buildings is
not only environmentally responsible
but refacing is also an economic
alternative to developing a new
structure. C/S Refacing Systems are
tailored to meet both the owners budget
and the building's architecture. The C/S
Grille Design Group can provide the
specifier with a wide variety of refacing
options to meet the projects functional
requirements, including which C/S Grille
product is best suited to provide the
appropriate coverage, free area and
screening requirements.

C/S Equipment Screens are designed to
conceal any equipment that can spoil
the appearance of a building. Our
equipment screens can be used on roof
tops to screen air conditioning, heating
and ventilation systems, or at ground level
to enclose generators, waste bins or other
auxiliary equipment. Offered in numerous
vertical or horizontal designs, these
vision barriers integrate beautifully
into the buildings architecture. Height,
width and blade spacing of each pattern
provides the specifier with options for the
amount of sight cut-off and free area that
the screen will provide.
