The most attractive features of architectural mesh are the inherent contrasts you discover as you design with it. It is open, yet cannot be fully penetrated. It presents a well-defined surface, though it permits the movement of air, light and heat. Architect of Record: Lendall Mains Architect Design Architect: Martinez & Johnson Architecture It is woven of stainless steel, yet can appear to defy gravity. It is woven by skilled artisans just like fine fabric, but it’s virtually indestructible. And its fascinating aesthetic appeal gracefully masks its functional potential. THE MATERIAL OF...

Cambridge Architectural invites you to explore architectural metal fabric’s intriguing aesthetics, functional utility and seemingly limitless exterior and interior applications. Woven metal mesh is a naturally sustainable product, as it is readily recyclable and can be manufactured from recycled materials. What follows are inspirational examples of projects featuring Cambridge metal fabric that flowed from the imaginations of visionary architects and were made possible through Cambridge’s fine metal mesh products and services, including consultative design assistance, innovative engineering...

GEOMETRY. SCALE. TEXTURE. Cambridge open metal fabrics are woven in hundreds of unique repeating geometric patterns to suit your design. Many weaves, like Cambridge Cubist, change dramatically in appearance depending on the angle at which the mesh is viewed. Several identical geometries are available in a variety of scales to match specific application requirements. Architect: Spagnolo Gisness & Associates, Inc.

Each Cambridge woven metal fabric pattern – both open weaves and closed – creates a distinct texture, allowing you to perfectly mix, match, and contrast with other metal fabrics or building materials. Architect: RTKL

Many Cambridge woven metal fabrics are flexible and can be contoured like a flowing curtain, draped to conform to curvilinear shapes or suspended in tension.

FORM. LIGHT. SHADOW. Other Cambridge metal fabrics are completely rigid, allowing you to create sharp crisp lines. Under light, Cambridge mesh can be as dazzling as you would like. During the day, natural light shimmers brilliantly off the woven metal mesh, while artificial lighting brings the mesh to life at night. Either way, the material reflects light beautifully. And on the other side of the light, open metal fabrics create intriguing shadow play unlike any other material.

Cambridge woven metal mesh is virtually indestructible requiring little, if any, maintenance. While architects fall in love with Cambridge’s looks, owners fall in love with its functionality. Depending upon your particular application, popular functions of mesh include: Solar Contro l – Cambridge’s open weaves, independently tested for shading and solar heat gain reduction perform wonderfully. Mas king – Mesh can be used on the exterior for unsightly mechanical equipment, on interior ceilings for masking ductwork and sprinkler systems. Difusion – Install open weaves in front of or below...

Venti lation – A wall of mesh creates a defined space without inhibiting airflow. Security & Safety – Protect people and property with the element of elegance. Branding – Use mesh for merchandising, signage, and as a unique branding element. Most importantly, Cambridge Architectural metal fabrics and attachment systems are made with a very high percentage of recycled metals. Service life is virtually infinite, and recycling of entire finished systems is easy. SUSTAINABLE. Architect: Beck Group Installed in 1958, metal mesh continues to maintain its original functionality and durability.

PARKADE No longer can aesthetics be sacrificed for functionality in parking design. New demands on parking structures require them to be elegant, thematic, and serve as focal points that can attract new business – all while seamlessly maintaining their utilitarian purpose. Cambridge has assisted in this visionary shift by providing a solution that meets these demands. Architects who use Cambridge Parkade* systems discover that mesh provides a highly textured and glimmering surface that intrigues the senses and invites drivers to park their vehicles within its space. Mixed-use facilities of...

Interior design is an art form that demands only the most beautiful and reliable materials. Cambridge woven metal fabrics are truly works of art, designed and hand-crafted by skilled weavers who understand that creativity is central to the transformation of any space. From small, complementary touches to large-scale aesthetic transformations, metal mesh will elevate any interior to new heights of elegance – and continue to look that way for years to come. Cambridge woven metal mesh elegantly dresses walls, ceilings and interior elevator cabs, brilliantly reflecting light throughout an...

Cambridge Solucent* systems save energy. Metal mesh shades the sun – reducing heat load, cooling requirements and ultimately energy consumption. Cambridge mesh provides a unique alternative to traditional shading systems, and can be designed for almost any opacity, shading or heat reduction requirements imaginable. For solar shading, architectural mesh looks and performs brilliantly. Cambridge mesh is more sophisticated and refined than any other solar shading product – and promotes airflow unlike traditional shading materials. Based on the mesh pattern, the interaction of material with...
