A major remodel transformed a former warehouse into a LEED Gold office building, part of the RiverEast Center in Portland’s Industrial Southeast area. Our flat bar weave with 1/2″ openings covers every ramp and stair panel, both interior and exterior.
Located at the San Ysidro Land Port of Entry, the world’s busiest land-based border crossing, this bridge securely connects the United States and Mexico. A strong woven wire is set in welded frames and attached to the slightly angled structure.
2″ aluminum mesh rail fill surrounds exterior balconies and stairs at this community library in southwest British Columbia.
Railing infill panels can be both functional and beautiful. Welded wire or woven wire within a frame is the most common with perforated metal being a great choice to finish off that stairway or deck railing.
Located in a natural setting north of Lake Tahoe, the building’s exterior showcases crimped and woven wire as rail fill. Individual panels are finished with banding on all sides, then mounted to tabs that connect to the rail structure. Finish colors are custom-made to match the metal roof and other architectural and aesthetic features around the timber-lined property.
Black powdercoated woven wire infill contrasts with blonde wooden framing at this private residence near Lake Tahoe, California. Used in both interior and exterior applications, the weave pattern offers sturdiness and security while maintaining a look that matches the home’s modern/rustic aesthetic.
TWG provided stock welded wire panels that were welded by the installer to enable a match to the arcing structural form of this steel pedestrian/cycling bridge. Panels were galvanized prior to installation. The span above busy McLoughlin Boulevard allows the Springwater Corridor path to continue from urban neighborhoods through natural wetlands and green spaces.
Located on Capitol Hill, this branch of Seattle’s Public Library is an urban building, but a stainless steel living trellis mounted to the façade wraps the perimeter with evergreen and deciduous vines and creates a bold entry, evocative of a ship’s prow. Maturing plants have continued to soften the brick facades; exterior walls are illuminated at night behind a veil of greenery. The vertical garden extends inside, flanking a two-story […]
A pedestrian bridge connecting a transit center to nearby neighborhoods, the design is an abstract “fish” that spans the Interstate 205 corridor. Special shapes of galvanized welded wire were created by TWG to fit the bridge’s unique configuration.
471 framed and powder coated panels are applied to all four facades of this parking facility. The system devised is a modification of standard Living Screen®, with wire mesh on one face to promote climbing plant growth and perforated plate on the opposite face to provide visual interest and security. The perforated pattern (Matrix) was specially designed by the Architect in collaboration with TWG’s Engineering team; the seemingly random array […]
Curving footpaths meander through 9-acres of grass fields and wooded wetlands in this suburban neighborhood green space. TWG supplied several dozen welded wire panels as barriers along the wooden bridges, each powdercoated to blend in with the natural surroundings. Custom mounts were created for attachment to the thick wooden pilings.
Over one mile of TWG’s wire rail infill was installed along the pedestrian and bicycling path that skirts the Willamette River’s eastern edge, including the overlooking Steel Bridge Riverwalk. The Eastbank Esplanade connects with downtown Portland and features multiple examples of local artwork, scenic vistas and natural habitat in its three-mile loop. The project received the Design Award of Merit from ASLA in 2004.
