It was important to the school that they maximize their construction budget and build a space that was energy-efficient. Structura suggested foam-encapsulated metal-stud framing for the addition, which is more economical as well as more insulating, resulting in lower heating and cooling costs in the space. We also suggested a concrete flooring finish that involved diamond-grinding concrete that had been embedded with glass, with stunning results for very little investment.
