Louisiana Offshore Oil Port (LOOP) Headquarters

LOOP desired a material that would be storm resistant, energy efficient, durable, and most importantly, reflect the character and detailing of "Old" New Orleans. Initially, brick and stone were considered for the project, but precast concrete quickly became the natural choice for the project with its strength, versatility and stone-like appearance. The high performance insulated precast concrete walls provided a complete barrier system with an R-value 2 times greater than what code requires. This saved materials, construction time, and money.
