1
Architectural Glass Art, Inc.-CAST GLASS-
  • Expanding the Role of Glass in Architecture

2
Company 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.

3
Objective
  • 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.

4
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.
