In response to the critical shortage of healthcare professionals in Southern Nevada, the College of Southern Nevada (CSN) and Nevada State College (NSC) collaborated to develop a joint-use facility on CSN’s Henderson Campus. With support and funding from the Nevada State Public Works Division, the team selected SH Architecture and KNIT to design the new Betty Engelstad School of Health & Sciences. The state-of-the-art building brings together advanced learning environments for both institutions.
ECO Cladding systems were used to support fiber cement and UHPC panels, contributing to a high-performance rainscreen façade.
Designed by NAC Architecture – Los Angeles, this 80,000-sf net-zero high school supports project-based learning by integrating indoor and outdoor collaborative spaces across a 5.7-acre coastal site. Malibu High School’s innovative layout breaks down traditional academic silos and promotes interdisciplinary learning.
ECO Cladding’s Sigma brackets supports 13,000 square feet of HDFC and perforated metal panels, delivering a durable, thermally efficient rainscreen system aligned with the school’s net-positive energy goals.

The renovation of the Bio+Tech Six building, home to the Division of Consolidated Lab Services (DCLS) and multiple VDACS labs, features Swisspearl HDFC panels supported by ECO Cladding’s engineered attachment system. Designed by FPW Architects, the project presented unique challenges due to the building’s reverse ventilation system and critical operational requirements. ECO Cladding’s adjustable subframing enabled precise installation of the high-performance façade while maintaining thermal efficiency and accommodating complex mechanical needs. The result is a modernized, durable exterior for a facility that plays a vital role in public health, food safety, and emergency response across Virginia and the mid-Atlantic region.
The Temple Sinai addition in Washington, DC, reflects a seamless blend of historic preservation and contemporary design. As part of the expansion of this landmark synagogue, the design team emphasized durability, aesthetics, and performance to complement the existing architecture while delivering a modern identity.
BFM Architects of Maryland specified Swisspearl high-density fiber cement (HDFC) panels for the facade, chosen for their refined finish, longevity, and sustainable characteristics. The panels were installed over ECO Cladding’s Hci.10 attachment system, providing a thermally efficient and structurally robust subframe. This combination allowed for a clean, modern rainscreen design that integrates harmoniously with the synagogue’s historic context.
The addition not only enhances the visual presence of Temple Sinai but also supports the congregation’s long-term mission by ensuring a low-maintenance, high-performance building envelope. The project demonstrates the successful collaboration of innovative materials, thoughtful design, and precise installation in a sensitive architectural setting.
At the UT Health Science Center in Houston, TX, a bold geometric design by Perkins+Will – Dallas pushes the limits of rainscreen architecture. Featuring Swisspearl HDFC fiber cement panels, the façade showcases sloping planes and deep reveals that required complex, multi-angle installation. ECO Cladding’s Vci.10 and Hci.11 sub-framing systems were key to achieving the design’s technical demands, offering the strength and adaptability needed for the varied depths and backward-sloping panels. The result is a dynamic, high-performance envelope that sets a new standard for architectural and sustainable excellence.
