Approximately 5,400 sq. ft. of Dri-Design Panels constructed with 1mm VM Quartz and Anthra Zinc were used to create a stunning design for a Cincinnati residence. The patented Dri-Design Wall Panel System is an affordable dry joint, pressure-equalized rainscreen system.

     
Design for the upscale 5,000 sq. ft. residence was provided by Jose Garcia Design, Cincinnati.  The firm has used zinc before in residential design and liked it, according to Jose Garcia.  “The zinc panels give you a fantastic look for a reasonable cost with low to no maintenance,” said Garcia.  “Although this was our first experience with Dri-Design, we are very familiar with the rainscreen attachment method.  We’ve used it very successfully in numerous commercial and residential projects.  The Dri-Design panels were particularly interesting to us because of the look and the superior performance.”

 A wide range of custom panel sizes (more than 110 different sizes) was used to create interesting detailing and reveals.

Installation of the Dri-Design panels was done by Kelley & Carpenter Refrigeration & Sheet Metal, Hamilton, OH.

Dri-Design panels can be made from a variety of materials including painted aluminum, zinc, copper and stainless steel and are 100% recyclable.  Panels are available in any Kynar color in both standard and custom sizes.
