  expand the role of glass in architecture and make
  it more interesting, exciting, and ultimately
  more meaningful for those who live, work and
  experience it.
• This is accomplished by expanding the diversity
  of applications and the use of new technologies.

Cast Glass

• Cast Glass is produced by heating plate glass on
  a mold to a temperature sufficient for the glass
  to conform to the sculpted mold surface. This
  creates areas of varying depth, relief, and
  texture. This molded texture provides visual
  obscurity while providing an appealing tactile
  quality.
