Rupp Arena in Lexington, Ky., was renovated with a sleek, metal modern facade. Crosshatched openings illuminate the interior with daylight during the day and emit light to the exterior at night, transforming the arena into a lantern-like structure. Light and shadows cascade across the dramatic facade. Continuing this modern look, and connecting the inside of the arena to the outside, aluminum Super Rib Panels in Graham White, by CENTRIA, were installed by Kalkreuth Roofing and Sheet Metal Inc.
