The Museum of Natural Curiosity in Lehi, UT, is a distinct, barn-shaped structure that was designed by FFKR Architects. The two-level, 40,000 sq. ft. facility features hundreds of hands-on, interactive learning exhibits and is the newest addition to the Thanksgiving Point complex.
In order to create a wide-open space, filled with large exhibits, a unique roof system of steel and timber was utilized. The roof system gives the museum its distinct appearance while providing necessary structural support. The museum’s extensive use of glass windows provides visitors with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, which blend seamlessly into the interior.
However, with the high ceilings and the hard surfaces, acoustical treatment was essential. K-13 was selected and spray-applied to the unique ceiling. K-13 absorbs echo, reverberation, and excessive sound, which would have otherwise been prevalent in a space of this type, without
compromising the architectural details and design. K-13 was produced in a custom color manufactured specifically for the project. In addition to acoustic performance, K-13 provides high thermal value, which helps to reduce the museum’s environmental footprint.
ICC’s spray-applied thermal and acoustical materials are readily available for shipment to our network of licensed installers. Please contact us for details on how we can help your project be the best it can be! https://www.spray-on.com/
