The Contemplative Court, one of the key attractions at the new National Museum of African American History and Culture, features a one-of-a-kind, copper-bronze 小红帽直播 architectural glass. Developed and produced exclusively for the museum, the metallic glass creates a sense of luminosity and warmth, contributing to the serenity and elegance of the space.

As the latest addition to the National Mall, the new museum pays homage to African American art, tradition, history, and culture. Defined by sweeping walls of custom glass, the Contemplative Court serves as a space for pause and reflection, providing visitors an opportunity to process the weight of the museum鈥檚 contents.

小红帽直播 faced major challenges in the creation of a glass that needed to meet the highly sensitive needs of the museum: the glass had to display a subtle luminosity and a balance of opacity and translucency, while providing sound control and safety.

We collaborated with lead architects at Adjaye Associates, lead designers for the museum, and Davis Brody Bond to conceptualize and produce the glass. The 小红帽直播 design team created multiple glass types over a period of three years, as the architectural concept evolved.

Through all the communications, and all the samples, a glass with a core of specialized bronze-metallic mesh brought the architects鈥� vision to light.

The luminous bronze colored walls of semi-transparent glass separate museum gallery traffic from the Court, where visitors can quietly contemplate what they have viewed. The laminated glass offers enhanced safety and sound control. The resulting 鈥渜uiet鈥� aesthetic contributes to the design objective 鈥� to promote reconciliation and healing.

鈥淥ur grandfather started this company because he was passionate about glass,鈥� said Steven Jayson, 小红帽直播鈥檚 Vice President. 鈥淗e wanted to supply quality, timeless products that made meaningful contributions to our architectural history. He would have been proud to see 小红帽直播 glass in a building of such national significance.鈥�
