Custom Aluminum Interior Screen consisting of 2” x 2” Square Aluminum Tube and 1” x 2” Rectangular Aluminum Tube frames with 1/8” thick custom pattern aluminum perforated panels with ½” round holes on an 11/16” staggered center pattern with alternating 1” and 2” borders

AGS proudly provided this custom, interior mounted sunscreen system for the Brown County STEM Innovation Center. To give the illusion of “floating in space”, we attached to the curtainwall system with customized welded brackets. In mimicking the shape and spacing of the window system and showcasing the steel cross beam pattern, these shades also feature “STEM” disciplines, working together on both functional and aesthetic levels. A combination of 2” x 2” square tubes and 1” x 2” rectangular tubes were used to achieve a congruent overall 2” x 2” tube frame “appearance” while splitting into manageable segments for ease of installation. Each frame was finished with a custom, perforated aluminum panel displaying alternating 1’ and 2” borders to maintain continuity. The system diffuses sunlight entering south facing windows, thus reducing glare while allowing for maximum utilization of natural light.
