    As part of Sauk Rapids-Rice High School's commitment to a comprehensive science curriculum, Crystal Structures installed a state-of-the-art, architectural-grade lean-to greenhouse. This 21' x 15' controlled environment classroom allows 1,200 students to conduct year-round plant growth experiments, gaining practical scientific skills.The greenhouse fosters interdisciplinary learning across biology, environmental science, physics, and chemistry. By manipulating factors like light and humidity, students can observe cause-and-effect relationships firsthand. They learn the scientific method through hands-on hypothesis testing, data gathering, and results interpretation.This living laboratory also instills environmental appreciation in students by demonstrating sustainable resource management. It is a testament to the school's innovative educational spaces that develop well-rounded, responsible students equipped for STEM careers. The hands-on lessons afforded by the Crystal Structures' greenhouse will stay with students long after graduation.🌿🏫 Originally built in cooperation with the Brossardt Corp., now W.M. Jordan Company https://lnkd.in/gxiYy4A4#Greenhouse #STEM #Education #Innovation #teachers #science #saukrapids #minnesota

    The First United Methodist Church in Abilene, TX has an impressive glass atrium designed by Crystal Structures bridging between the main 1965 church and a modern activity center. Soaring 33' high, the atrium features Contemporary architecture with ample natural light - perfect for church gatherings. Sadly the magnificent structure suffered damage in a 2014 hailstorm, but I wanted to showcase the atrium pre-storm when it exemplified exceptional architectural design and engineering by Crystal Structures. Despite the destruction inflicted across Abilene, images of the atrium in its prime demonstrate the grace, style, and functionality Crystal Structures brought to the project.https://lnkd.in/guEcajnz

    When West Des Moines Fire Station #17 wanted to renovate its 1991 building, they called on Crystal Structures to install custom skylights.The station now features an eye-catching, approximately 15-foot square pyramid skylight above the entrance plus three new 6-foot by 6-foot pyramid skylights in other areas.These attractive, functional skylights flood previously dreary spaces with ample natural light. Crystal Structures contributed to uplifting the workplace for the 23 on-call firefighters and leadership who protect this thriving Iowa suburb around the clock.Though not Crystal Structure's largest project, enhancing civic structures like Fire Station #17 benefits the whole West Des Moines community. The custom skylights improved aesthetics, functionality, and morale in the firehouse. Most importantly, they gave back to the brave firefighters who sacrificed so much.https://lnkd.in/gDmBHCZB🎉🏢 #architecture #contractors #renovationproject #communityimpact #WestDesMoines #firefighters

    Another shipment of glass arrives! With all the orders we're manufacturing, our shipping and receiving departments are always busy. Dual-pane, insulated glass these days is much more efficient at keeping homes and offices comfortable with better insulating factors and UV blocking. By the way, those larger pieces of insulated glass weigh about 90 lbs each.

    The Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame and Natural History Museum features a breathtaking skylight by Crystal Structures. The 29' x 25' x 18' x 17' architectural showpiece floods the curving museum halls with natural light.Strategically engineered and installed above winding pathways, the quadrilateral skylight spotlights athlete memorabilia with an ethereal glow. As sunlight streams down, museumgoers enjoy the feeling of meandering through a canopy of trees.The skylight brings together the museum's focus—honoring sports greats against the backdrop of the Louisiana landscape. With aesthetic flair, it serves the functional purpose of illuminating the state's rich athletic history. Like the Hall-of-Fame inductees, the Sunshine Rooms skylight stands out as a star feature.https://lnkd.in/gG_drq5ETrahan Architects#FLCrane&Sons#lousiana #sports #skylight
