- Expanding the Role of Glass in Architecture
2Company History
- Architectural Glass Art was founded in 1875 as a
stained glass studio, it is one of the oldest
American studios in continuous operation. - Ken vonRoenn purchased company in 1991 and
reorganized the studio to focus on more diverse
applications in glass, thereby expanding the role
of glass in architecture.
3Objective
- Architectural Glass Arts primary objective is to
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.
4Cast 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.
