The Hot Springs Intermediate School, located in Hot Springs, Arkansas,
may appear to be an everyday, two-story school. But in taking a closer
look at the aluminum, glass and brick building it is apparent that there
is much more to the building than meets the eye.
Sustainability was a key factor in creating the new school. It was
important that the Intermediate School incorporate solutions that help
provide a healthy, productive learning environment, such as increased
daylighting and improved energy efficiency. To help achieve natural
lighting, products from Alcoa’s Kawneer architectural aluminum products
business were selected to help increase the durability, sustainability
and energy efficiency of the school. The new school, now occupied by
approximately 700 students, is spacious and features an open floor plan
with natural light throughout.
