1.888.214.3655 About News / Blog Contact THE ARCHITECTURAL CERAMIC ASSEMBLIES WORKSHOP The ACAWorkshop is the result of Boston Valley Terra Cotta CEO, John Krouse’s desire to create an event that brings together individuals to experiment and learn about architectural terra cotta. ACAW connects local institutions and experts from varied professions for a unique, educational opportunity. Together, Boston Valley, University at Buffalo School of Architecture and Planning, and Alfred University help facilitate the production of each team’s vision. The final result of ACAW is a culmination of months of research and preparation; at the weeklong event, prototypes are assembled, tested and presented to the industry peers. The ACAWorkshop gives participants the opportunity to explore innovative building solutions and further their understanding of terra cotta for architectural applications. Increasing an architect’s awareness for Boston Valley’s production capabilities assists the design process for developing future works and expands the possibilities in the creation of unique architectural façades.

1.888.214.3655 About News / Blog Contact UNITIZED Unitized systems are a segment of curtain wall construction that takes assembly off-site and into a controlled factory setting: giving the advantages of speed of installation, lower field labor costs, and quality control. While terra cotta’s materiality and wide array of design options contribute to its popularity in architectural facades throughout history, its malleability of form and profile makes it just as suited for today’s unitized systems and high performance facades. Boston Valley has extensive knowledge of the material and aesthetic properties of terra cotta and experience working early in the design process to develop forms ideal to the design needs of architects, façade engineers, and design consultants. Through digital technology, our design-assist services and precision fabricating capabilities – both prior and post firing – we work with curtain wall manufacturers to design and develop terra cotta components to the specifications of unitized systems.
