W. L. Hall Company was approached by CM Construction (Burnsville, MN) to collaborate on the realization of Wold's design. As a company specializing in K-12 facility projects, we understand the importance of delivering designs that are visually appealing, durable, and high quality. In selecting our trade partners, we prioritize these characteristics. Marlite paneling was the perfect choice for this high-traffic area as it is known for its durability, easy maintenance, and impact resistance.

Wold selected Marlite’s Sieva Large Panel System because rather than simply providing wood veneer or FRP panels, Marlite offers perimeter and intermediate trim options as part of their complete package offering. Wold selected flat cut maple veneer with a clear finish and black anodized aluminum trim for this application.

Luminous Barrisol® ceilings and walls use color-changing LED technology to shape atmosphere and support how a space is used throughout the day. Neutral tones suit everyday operations, while richer brand colors can highlight events, milestones, or special moments. Warmer hues create a welcoming feel for evening use or guest receptions, with digital controls allowing lighting to evolve as branding or needs change—without physical alterations. Extending the same approach into the vertical plane, Barrisol® luminous walls are built on a lightweight aluminum framework, with integrated lighting and translucent membranes. The result is a clean, softly glowing architectural surface that delivers uniform, glare-free illumination and visual calm. When ceilings and walls shift color in sync, the space gains depth and rhythm, subtly reinforcing brand presence and guiding movement through key areas without relying on signage.

Most building professionals know that air leakage is one of the biggest performance failures in commercial buildings. What is less understood is this: Air leakage doesn't move in only one direction. It can move inward (infiltration) or outward (exfiltration) — and each direction carries its own set of energy, comfort, and moisture-control consequences. Even worse, rolling doors have historically been among the weakest points of the building envelope.
