Our client, Triad Associates, was tasked with creating a new entry plaza for the Clark Avenue School in Chelsea, MA that included architectural graphics of a concrete Earth. Throughout the outside area, there are other planets formed and poured in colored concrete. The walkways between the planets even have special silica carbide hand-seeded into the top surface which allows the concrete to sparkle like stars. Low-voltage lighting was mounted flush to the concrete to look like a large, bright star.

Once the concrete was poured, the seven 13 oz. vinyl panels were laid out and bolted down with washers and pins.  The continents were then carved with an electric hand saw. When the land was defined, the water and land were stained and sealed with Brickform products.
