Van Buren Township Community Center

Van Buren Township, MI

Van Buren Township Community Center in Van Buren Township, Michigan, uses 14,000 SF of SMARTci® Building Enclosure System over metal studs, behind ACM cladding, with polyiso insulation. It is a municipal community center, designed by Neumann Smith Architecture, built by Frank Rewold & Sons, and installed by Advanced Construction Group.

A community center is funded publicly and expected to serve varied uses for decades, from gatherings to recreation, so the envelope is judged on low upkeep and a steady interior across changing occupancy. SMARTci wraps the wall in a continuous air- and water-tight enclosure over polyiso, holding even interior conditions through cold Michigan winters behind a durable ACM exterior the township will not have to maintain often.
