| For the past two years Carve Surfaceworks has been involved with a project special to North Carolina and to us. |
 |
| N. C. Aquarium at Nags Head Architect: Chip Hemingway with BMH ARCHITECTS General Contractor: Clancy + Theys |
 |
| I would like to thank Chip Hemingway and David Michaels for thinking outside the often bland concrete box. Also I would like to thank JR, the Project Manger of Clancy + Theys, and Gordan of S+W Concrete. These men allowed Carve to take part in an unbelievably historical project. Every time we stepped foot on the project, we felt like history was being made. Jennette's Pier is a LEED's Gold project. This project was built to withstand and harvest the powers of nature. Carve was able to contribute to LEED's points by using a concrete terrazzo finish. |
 |
| The project consisted of 5,000 lbs of post-consumed recycled glass, size range from 1/4" to 3" diameter. "That's some big ass glass" said some job site spectators. The day we cast the glass we had a North East wind at 10 to 20 knots and a air temperature of 43 degrees. With our bare hands (we forgot gloves), we cast all the glass during the pour. |
 |
| The following year Team Carve did some designer saw kerfs. We cut nine 12'x12' squares. We then exposed all the interiors of the squares. The perimeter we did a quick polish. We sealed with a satin exterior base sealer. |

| Color: "Make it look like the OCEAN"...so we did. Two thumbs up to the owners and crew @ the double M's. They let us have artisan liberty with color, texture, and application. |

| Kaycey (owner) and Designer Mindy of (Mindy Heu Design) Achieved a modern clean look. What could be more modern or cleaner than a white epoxy floor |
Carve has worked with Mindy on a few projects.
The great thing about Mindy Heu Design
is the ability to do Clean Modern to Victorian Traditional .
