Kendall Square, Boston
The façade of the Kendall Square building in Boston harks back to the local tradition of redbrick buildings. The warmth of the terracotta material contrasts with the translucent glass. The result is an exciting composition combining weightiness and lightness.

Justus-Liebig-University, Gießen
The façade design of a building of the Justus Liebig University in Giessen was a redevelopment project with special requirements. In order to adapt to the static conditions, the units of the TERRART®-LARGE system were modified to different widths and lengths, up to extra lengths of 170 cm. The light terracotta natural shade radiates a friendly, open charisma of the building.

Institute Pasteur, Lille
What’s exciting about this façade design is not only its colour – a warm red that was mixed specially for the project –, but above all the arrangement of the nonuniform TERRART® elements that enclose the individual structures with the exception of the ground floors. At first sight, the building conjures up a resemblance to

Wolbeck School Centre, Münster
The Wolbeck school complex scheme entailed refurbishment of a COR-TEN façade. The TERRART®-LARGE terracotta façade harmonizes beautifully with the two other materials used, glass and fibre cement, while at the same time emphasizing the subtleties in aspect of the school. The present solution, unlike the COR-TEN façade, fully complies with statutory insulation requirements. An added bonus is the graffiti resistance of the new façade, which was erected in

Fraunhofer Institute, Hermsdorf
Objectivity and great transparency: the building’s exterior expresses, what is also important where technical Developments – the speciality of the Fraunhofer-Institut in Duisburg – are concerned. The clear façade structure is striking for its dichotomy of glass and terracotta. The reddish TERRART® elements consist of profiled panels, which were also used as ceiling lining for

Fraunhofer Institut, Bayreuth
The Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems has been expanded to include a long, two-storey building that resembles a steamboat. The ceramic facade is specially designed to reference the work that takes place within the institute: slim, horizontal strips of light-coloured, glazed terracotta in different arrangements adorn the building, lending it an elegant finish.

Liberty Technology Park, Cluj-Napoca
Warm, dark red terracotta with an untreated surface gives a charming, inviting impression. The bulkiness of the squareshaped corner building is relieved by slat-like curtain structures made of baguettes that act as a sunshade and cover most of the facade surface. They are suspended on substructures some distance away from the windows. The corner solutions
