“For centuries, terra cotta has given architects the versatility needed to realize their designs. […] Utilizing both superior ceramic engineering knowledge and sculpting talent, Boston Valley Terra Cotta has become one of the leading manufacturers of architectural terra cotta globally. […] Having been in the ceramic manufacturing business for over 120 years, we have a proven commitment to quality and a history of unparalleled customer service. Boston Valley’s diverse terra cotta lines include architectural terra cotta for restoration and custom façade systems, terra cotta roof tile, TerraClad rain screen system and [TerraClad Sunshade system].”
This project features Boston Valley’s TerraClad Sunshade. “[We] offer sunshade devices as part of our TerraClad® product line. They can be used in combination with the rain screen system or as a standalone feature. A true marriage of form and function, these sunshade devices aid in reduction of glare and help to shield occupants from the sun similar to traditional blinds. TerraClad® sunshade devices provide designers with another component with which to create a unique, modern building facade.”
