Glass Becomes Sculpture
ClearCast Glass extends the traditions of specialty architectural glass. Impressed graphic lines carry the legacy of lead lines in stained glass. Bands of optical refraction recall the cut areas in beveled glass. An array of curved forms recalls conventional bent glass. Simple grid and patterned building blocks rejuvenate the concept of glass block.
ClearCast Glass doors are distinguished by a high degree of transparency and a deep, smooth, seductive texture. The panels create delightful atmospheric effects when light rays are bent through the curvatures of each design. The Echo panel represents the embodiment of sound, while Orbit suggests circles of light.
Thermal performance is enhanced by additional air space created in compartmentalized hollows, which can result in more than double the typical insulating air space used to make insulated glass. Increased air space also has a positive effect on reducing sound transmission levels.
ClearCast Glass doors are crafted using mortise and tenon construction and custom moldings are milled in the shop to give your door a truly distinct look. Choose from 16 styles framed in mahogany, fir and other woods. From Sculptural Glass Doors.
