Surface Inc introduces Ombrae in Cor-Ten Steel

Ombrae system creator, Roderick Quin has expanded the already astounding versatility of this revolutionary surface design material by introducing Cor-Ten steel to the portfolio of substrates.

Standard Ombrae panels have been available for some time in aluminium, the first commercially available material for the Ombrae optical tiling system.
