    Orange County Museum of Art

    The undulating exterior of the Orange County Museum of Art is clad in bands of terra cotta that were specially designed and cast for the project. Although the design is an exercise in angles, the curves of the 6,500+ panels installed in the museum were limited to a few select angles to make production more efficient.
