The Broad Museum facade (aka the ‘veil’) features a depression creating the illusion that it dips behind the glass and re-emerges. To maintain the illusion, the portion inside the building must hang from the glass on the interior without additional external support. The exterior part of the veil is made of GFRC and a steel frame which would be too heavy to support the mullions. FRP makes a much lighter alternative and can be designed to match the finish of the exterior. The oculus was designed in 5 pieces to fit through the narrowest door to access the conference room where it was assembled and installed.

The Anda Sculpture is a 25’ long by 17’ tall egg-shaped sculpture for a swimming pool. Guests can enter the structure by swimming underneath or by a drawbridge and sit on the teak benches inside to view the sky from the oculus.

K&A fabricated the nine primary acoustic surfaces (aka “Sails”) on the interior of the Bing Concert Hall at Stanford University, as well as the (nearly) elliptical ceiling (aka “Cloud”). The Sails range in size from 26′ x 26′ up to 35′ x 50′, and the Cloud’s maximum length is 130′. All surfaces have compound curvature, and the Cloud has a complex sinusoidal surface articulation.

The Red Rabbit is a 56-foot-long sculpture entitled Leap. It is installed in the baggage claim area of a new terminal at the Sacramento International Airport. It is the centerpiece of several contemporary art exhibits in the airport, commissioned by the Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission. Suspended by seven cables, it appears to be leaping through the atrium space into a vortical suitcase on the ground below.
