At 41 Seyon Street in Waltham, a metamorphosis has taken place. What was once a mundane painted EIFS façade has been reborn into an expanse of glass openings, juxtaposed with bespoke gradient terracotta panels. The introduction of highly reflective glass serves as a living canvas, mirroring the mature and new landscape that embraces the building. The once imposing and monolithic stair tower has undergone a stunning rejuvenation, now adorned in spandrel glass. This transformation invites the play of light and the dance of sky reflections, infusing the environment with an uplifting luminosity. A visual narrative unfolds through the terracotta panels, transitioning from a light base to a commanding dark top, these custom panels traverse the entire façade, infusing the edifice with an organic sense of movement and depth.
