Our
largest and most prominent project to date, the Hargrove Music Library
combined a unique design with a technically challenging engineering
slate application. The project architects sought to alter the rhythm
of the slate’s pattern without appearing random, all while
connecting gracefully around large windows and subtle angles in
the building’s shape.
Our crew collaborated with the project architects to create a unique implementation on a large scale. Using premium, unfading Vermont gray/green slate, CFS used pieces of material cut to 15 5/8” square with 2” clips on the right and left sides. Each piece of slate was laid at an 11-degree angle with a 4” side lap and 2” head lap. All pieces were laid onto separate panels on the building, separated by aluminum flashing. The
final product is unmatched in its intricacy and quality, all completed
on time and within the project budget.
