Stainless Steel & Fused Metal: This section details the high-durability finishes and patterns available for stainless steel, offering limitless design options. Fused Metal, a colored stainless steel, uses vapor deposition technology to provide a range of colors while maintaining durability.
Stainless Steel Finishes: Available finishes include Seastone, Mist, Sandstone, Diamond, Linen, and Marquisette, noted for enhanced resistance to abrasion and wear.
Fused Metal Colors & Finishes: Fused Metal offers finishes like White Gold, Nickel Silver, Graphite, and Bronze, each with unique aesthetics and durability.
Impression Patterns: High-relief patterns such as Champagne, Chardonnay, Dallas, and Denver add visual interest and customization potential, available in various sheet sizes and thicknesses.
Eco-Etch Patterns: Created using a photolithographic bead-blasting system, Eco-Etch patterns offer environmentally friendly etched designs, including City Lights, Flicker, Reeds, and Seagrass.
Fusion Patterns: Fusion patterns combine multiple design types for unique surfaces, with examples like Cinch, Carbon, Moraine, and Mesa.
Applications: The document details applications for each material, emphasizing adaptability to architectural needs, from wall systems to elevator interiors.
Systems: Innovative solutions like the LEVELe Wall System, LightPlane Panels, and Silhouette Railing System integrate these materials into architectural designs.
Additional Resources: The document concludes with resources for further exploration of Forms+Surfaces products and specifications.
Screen Patterns: Inspired by textiles, nature, and cultural motifs, screen patterns offer solutions for space division, light alteration, privacy, and architectural shaping, suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
Stainless Steel & Fused Metal Applications: Applications include LEVELe wall systems, custom bridge panels, column covers, and elevator door skins, available in various finishes and patterns.
Bonded Metal: A high-performance surfacing material combining metal granules in a fiber-reinforced polymer matrix, offering lightweight yet durable castings with the appearance of solid metal.
Bonded Quartz: A durable surfacing solution incorporating ceramic microspheres in a polymer matrix, ideal for walls, columns, and elevator interiors.
VividGlass: Offers a range of architectural glass products with diverse design possibilities, including the ViviChrome line for solid colors.
Glass Products Overview: Detailed information on glass products like ViviChrome, ViviGraphix, ViviStone, and ViviForm, focusing on specifications, applications, and customization options.
ViviChrome Glass: Discusses Chromis and Scribe glass options, available in various configurations and finishes.
ViviGraphix Glass: Includes Elements, Graphica, Gradiance, and Spectra glass, each offering different configurations and customization options.
ViviStone Glass: Mimics real stone with ultra-sharp graphic interlayers, customizable using the Virtual Quarry online tool.
