Silver Creek Industries Wins a First Place MBI Award of Distinction 2019
Leading volumetric construction firm Silver Creek Industries (SCI) (silver-creek.net) was announced as the first place winner of the Permanent Modular Assembly category of the Modular Building Institute's (MBI) 2019 Awards of Distinction at the 36th Annual World of Modular in Las Vegas, Nevada.
PERRIS, Calif., April 5, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The prestigious award recognizes design excellence for the Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park Visitor Center in Laguna Niguel, California which SCI completed in partnership with Accelerated Modular Concepts. The 2,620 sf modular structure consists of two buildings housing a main lobby, exhibit space, ranger station, meeting room, visitor area, support spaces, and public restrooms. The unique stepped roof design maximizes the interior volume while minimizing the total building height. To further maximize the interior volume, the roof structure is left exposed in the lobby and exhibit areas. Large glazed openings and glass roll-up doors are provided throughout the public areas to take advantage of the views onto the wilderness park, beautifully blending the indoor and outdoor space.
The client's design direction required the project to utilize specialized module sizes to create the finished building. Additionally, there was a desire to minimize the site impact given the natural setting of the project. To meet these requirements SCI developed a series of specialized building frames which allowed the primary building to be constructed with only 4 modules which were placed on a series of raised piers.
"There is a rising worldwide interest in volumetric construction as of late," said Michael Rhodes, President of Silver Creek Industries. "We are proud to be part of these ever-changing times where modular buildings are no longer a temporary solution but rather the go-to innovate approach to construction. Winning this award asserts our continuous endeavor to be leading in this movement."
This year's MBI Awards of Distinction included 125 entries from projects worldwide.
