The New High School Building for Kelly Walsh Integrates Velux Sun Tunnels
Kelly Walsh High School is the main secondary public education institution in Casper, WY. First opened in 1956, they are finally expanding with a three part renovation and redesign project. A key aspect of the project is the installation of 195 Velux Sun Tunnels to allow for natural daylight through out the buildings.
While Kelly Walsh HS is not aiming for LEED certification, they are building with sustainability in mind, not to mention the benefits that daylight provide to students and learning.
“We anticipate our lighting power density will be less than 0.6 watts per square foot,” —Matt Arabasz of RB+B Architects, Inc
