Kansas City Star

Kansas City Star Production Facility

The new production facility for the Kansas City Star involved the Juan Moreno of the Austin Company, a group of designers and engineers who specialize in producing industrial facilities, such as printing presses. The Kansas City Star wanted a building which would allow the public to view the inner workings of producing the morning news paper.

The result is a massive production building, where delivery trucks literally drive through the building at it's 16th street garage. The windows span 3 stories, providing a well lit view at night of the paper being produced.

Zahner developed a preweathered copper patination system for this building which we fittingly call Star Blue™ Patina. Nearly 5000 copper panels were used to create the 80,000 sf. surface of pre-patinated copper. The surface is a mottled green-blue surface which pre-ages the copper's surface by 200 years, and which will continue to grow and evolve and further protect the copper itself.

The wall system used was a modified Standing Seam Rain-Screen System, the root of which has been around for over 100 years. The modifications made were to the design of the visual line which is made at the seam emerging as a 45 degree angle and providing further rain-screen protection than a typical standing seam.
