In honor of 35 years of YKK AP, we continue to highlight our team's 35 favorite projects!

With college back in session, today we're spotlighting Auburn University's Jay and Susie Gogue Performing Arts Center.

Designed as a landmark destination for arts and culture, the Gogue Center features a dynamic glass facade defined by leaning curtain wall planes, intersecting walls and distinctive trapezoidal glass panels.

YKK AP leveraged its YCW 750 OG and YCW 750 SSG Curtain Wall Systems, along with advanced 3D modeling to engineer the unique elevation while maintaining structural integrity and performance. The result is a sculptural, dynamic facade and a cultural home to Auburn's student population and beyond.

Take a peek at our 35 favorite projects lists at ykkap.com/favorite-projects.

As part of our 35 Years Celebration, we're highlighting our Top 35 Favorite Projects! Today's Spotlight: Red Hawk Resort + Casino in Placerville, California. Developed by the Shingle Springs Band of Indians, this premier hospitality destination was thoughtfully designed to reflect the natural beauty of the Sierra foothills and honor the cultural heritage of the Miwok people.

Featuring expansive glazing and a high-performance façade, the project creates bright, inviting spaces while delivering the durability, energy performance, and refined aesthetics needed for a world-class hospitality environment. The result is a landmark destination where culture, architecture, and innovation come together.

For 35 years, projects like Red Hawk Resort + Casino have demonstrated how high-performance façade solutions can do more than enhance a building - they can help tell its story.

Check out our whole list of our Favorite 35 Projects this year: ykkap.com/favorite-projects.
