Completed Works

KAUFFMAN CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS.

Featured ProjectKansas City

Kauffman Center

The Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts is a project designed by Safdie Architects located in Kansas City. Zahner provided the stainless steel and substructure, which wraps the entirety of the facade and roof. This included the engineering, fabrication, and installation. Zahner also provided interior metalwork in key areas such as staircases and other architectural detailing on the building’s interior. Zahner worked closely with the design team to develop the surface systems. The entire roof and metal wall-surface is clad in GB-60 stainless steel. Zahner developed this product to provide a muted reflectivity and resilience to the elements.

Featured ProjectNew York City

Dream Downtown

The Dream Downtown Hotel, designed by Handel Architects, features a Zahner engineered custom façade and window system. To mitigate glare, the stainless steel is custom finished to medium reflectivity. The perforated ZIRA system lends an element of visual interest and added rainscreen functionality. Zahner was selected to collaborate on the project due to the complexity of engineering required. The architect’s drawings outlined dozens of circular windows to be cut into the façade, mirroring parts of the preserved historic building, originally designed by Albert Ledner.
