SoFi Stadium Showcases the Latest in Metal Architecture
A. Zahner Company put heat stress and the safety of passengers landing at nearby airports front of mind when constructing SoFi stadium’s metal exterior.
Each of the 34,789 triangular panels that make up LA’s SoFi Stadium exterior are unique – creating a logistical frenzy for contractors in the design and construction process.
The 2022 host of the Super Bowl, which first opened in September 2020, was designed by HKS. They turned to A. Zahner Company to manufacture aluminum panels to side the translucent ETFE membrane-topped stadium – each anodized to a custom frost white finish with 20 million uniquely placed perforations.
