Ceiling System Helps Save Labor, Costs on Drywall Project
Chicago Metallic 650 Drywall Suspension System offers structural integrity, simplifies installation, in museum curved ceiling designs.
From cowboy life to West African art, Lone Star dinosaurs to distant planets, the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History is dedicated to lifelong learning. So, it was only fitting that when the museum undertook the construction of a new, $80 million facility, the design included sweeping spaces highlighted by what could easily be viewed as a literal representation of “learning curves.”
Designed by internationally renowned architects Legorreta + Legorreta, the 166,000 square-foot building features dramatic open spaces with domed, curved and barrel-vaulted ceilings throughout. The job of bringing the architect’s curved concepts to life fell to Integrated Interiors, a Fort Worth contractor with expertise in specialty commercial drywall installations.
