Thermo Fisher Scientific

Gold Award
"ThermoFisher Scientific Signage " is an elegant monumental-scale site-specific installation of floor and wall mounted handcast art glass used as sculptural lobby signage in a new ThermoFisher head office in Pittsburgh, PA. Strada Architects in Pittsburgh designed the TI. The 25’ high by 17’ wide - 3/8” thick tempered panels of standard texture MD 207 “Brushed” textured glass are supported with copper-clad steel custom ornamental hardware. Molds were one-off handmade molds, destroyed in the firing process. Since all cast glass is made from custom molds at Meltdown Glass, creating custom signage is affordable. Cast glass can be tempered, laminated or installed in fire-rated safety-glass wall systems. It lends itself equally to being integrated into architecture or added as desired to an existing facility or home.
