Our Work in action
Restoring New York City’s historied buildings connects us to the City’s past in a way that few others experience. The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation’s premises on Lafayette Street has a rich and varied history, and we can add our own chapter to its story with our massive hand-carved mahogany and high performance windows.
We’ve explored NYC’s groundbreaking Climate Mobilization Act, and now it’s time to turn to Boston’s Climate Action Plan. Boston’s Mayor Walsh set a goal of making Boston carbon neutral by 2050, and buildings must reduce their carbon emissions by at least 15 percent every 5 years.
This iconic home is the perfect representation of respecting historical architectural features while integrating time-honored craftsmanship and modern materials and technology for energy performance and safety.
The art of making stained glass windows is about 1,000 years old. Traditionally, stained glass was used in churches, synagogues, mosques, and other religious edifices. They were primarily used to tell a story to the lay people that were largely illiterate at the time.
When we talk about windows and window design, it is easy to focus on the many types of window styles, sizes, interior and exterior finishes, even hardware. But we’re there’s one item that every single window has: glass.
We worked on this handsome red brick Landmark, installing ten custom high performance windows from Jeld-Wen on four levels.
