GREATNESS IN OUR PRESENCE AT METALCON 2016
While the nation was looking at a photo of the First Lady giving Former President Bush Senior a gentle hug, the metal construction industry was ogling over the bronze coated filigree on the building of the newly opened iconic Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) in Washington DC. Encompassing 397,000 sq ft of space across 10 levels, the building design features three distinct elements: the shape and form of the corona, the porch extension that merges the building into the surrounding landscape, and the bronze color of the corona. Colleagues in the metal construction industry were on the front line creating this masterpiece. To achieve the unique bronze look of the exterior, Valspar’s Fluropon® was selected for the complicated job due to its durability and color retention which will help showcase the vivid color for many years. Valspar Booth #1821 has been a key partner in the METALCON show since the show began. Be sure to visit Valspar in the exhibit hall at METALCON 2016. Visit the METALCON Blog for the full story.
