The Kent Police Station designed by DS Architecture was featured in the July 10th edition of Building Design + Construction magazine in an article titled: “Kent Police Station: Bridging a neighborhood, architecturally and symbolically” The Kent Police Station features Centria metal panels as a comprehensive envelope solution. For the full article, see the link in bio. #InspiringTogether #AlwaysLearningAlwaysTeaching #KentPolice #ProtectAndServe #KentOhio #DSArchitecture #Police #MetalPanels #MetalPanelCladding #MetalPanelArchitecture #Architecture “The station had to present an energized, neighborly aesthetic positioning it as a safe pillar of the community. he Kent Police Station is located at a transition point between two different neighborhoods and architecturally distinct areas, meaning that the new structure had to serve multiple purposes. Visually, it had to echo the more modern Kent State College Architecture and Design building while nodding to the nearby, more classic structures of the central business district. Additionally, the station had to present an energized, neighborly aesthetic positioning it as a safe pillar of the community. The building’s materiality was extremely significant. To mirror the more historic buildings, it needed the appearance of brick, yet with a lighter, less oppressive product – something modern and forward-thinking. At the street level, selected materials had to withstand heavy snowfall and resist salt and ice. Because the building can be accessed from two different sides and is visible from four different directions, its signage also needed to stand out and act as a beacon and safe haven for those who need police assistance, further positioning the station as a community-oriented establishment. The team at DS Architecture utilized CENTRIA’s Formawall Dimension Series Graphix metal panels and Ecoscreen perforated screenwall in the Allura Terra Cotta finish to effectively establish the Kent Police station as the desired transition between the historic downtown district and the more contemporary developments on campus. These panels achieved the project’s unique, modular aesthetics using a limited number which helped (at Kent Police Department)

It was a pleasure taking Scout Pack 3300 on a tour of the new #KentPolice Building this evening. There were lots of great questions from the group. This was also the first (and hopefully last) time these guys will see the inside of a jail cell. #AlwaysLearningAlwaysTeaching #InspiringTogether (at Kent Police Department)
