Trendstone Used at Nashville Tech in Cookeville (TN)

 

Nashville Tech’s Cookeville (TN) location recently added the Don Sundquist Advanced Technology Center.

The design team at McFarlin Huitt Panvini Architects, of Nashville, did a great job of using Trendstone groundface architectural masonry units manufactured by Trenwyth.

The project was built under the supervision of the RG Anderson Co., a Nashville based General Contractor.

 

The Pembroke color you see above and below looks as good inside as it does outside and we appreciate the unique use of architectural masonry units by the architectural team.

 

The Greystone color shown in the photo below is a real room brightener and the Pembroke used as an accent really contrasts and enhances the wall.

All of the Pembroke units below the accent band are Trendstone Plus units and the rest are regular Trendstone units.

These two colors of Trendstone, Pembroke and Greystone, look great together and finding two colors that can be used as field and accent color like this is the sign of a design team that knows what they’re doing.

Keystone’s Country Manor BBG Tumbled segmental retaining wall units, along with Tumbled Caps look very, very good with our Tumbled Hampton Blend Pavers by Paverlock.

This Gallatin (TN) homeowner thought so too, so they had Puryear Farms install that very combination, along with this Muster S pattern that was supplied by the Antioch location of Southland Brick and Block.

Blair School of Music - Vanderbilt University

The design team from Street Dixon Rick Architecture, from Nashville, is responsible for the fantastic and unique brick veneer you see in the photo above.

The Sioux City Brick Blair Blend utility size field brick is starkly contrasted by the Acme Brick Dove Gray utility size accent brick and both work together to make this exterior a thing of beauty.

There were over 75,000 of the Blair Blend utility size field brick used on this project and over 8,500 of the Dove Gray utility size accent brick.

That amounts to almost 28,000 SF of brick laid by Shaw & Jones Masonry of Brentwood (TN) and supplied by Southland Brick and Block’s Murfreesboro (TN) location.

The general contractor on the project was American Constructors, of Nashville.

Another unique design feature that I’ve rarely seen, but really like is this radiused section which adds depth and shadows to a long, straight wall.

Here’s a photo that shows how the designers at Street Dixon Rick Architecture used brick columns, tall, narrow windows and louvers to take the end of the building a make it a focal point. It also appears that the relief angles and expansion joints were well thought out ahead of time and installed properly by the masonry contractor, Shaw & Jones Masonry.

Southland Brick and Block appreciates the design team from Street Dixon Rick selecting our products and thanks Shaw & Jones for working with us.
