10 Bond Street is an elegant residential building in New York City designed by Selldorf Architects. The seven-story structure encom­passes 34,000 square feet and features a TerraClad® façade man­ufactured by Boston Valley Terra Cotta. The building is notable for its unique extruded profile and eye-catching custom glaze.

Selldorf’s signature building is located in the NoHo neighborhood in Lower Manhattan. Completed in 2016, 10 Bond Street is now a part of Manhattan’s rich architectural history. Designed with sensitivity for its historical surroundings, Selldorf Architects took inspiration from nearby architectural details; the design comple­ments the other residences located in the landmarked neighbor­hood while retaining a distinct character of its own.

The Facade

10 Bond’s architectural details, such as its modest height and dark russet color, help highlight the classic style of low-rise build­ings in the neighborhood. The design aesthetic accentuates the horizontal plane of the building, its large windows framed by Boston Valley’s rich glazed terra cotta panels. 10 Bond is clever in its reinterpretation of industrial brick work of the late 19th and early 20th centuries; the styling and character transports residents back to past eras, using modern applications of terra cotta to achieve great style.

The Extrusion Forming Method

The terra cotta units for 10 Bond were fabricated using the extru­sion forming method. This forming method is most effective for the production of a linear directional profile that requires many units. Clay is fed into the extruding chamber and pushed through a steel die, creating a continuous terra cotta panel. The hollow extrusion is then cut to the designated length.

The terra cotta fabricated for 10 Bond are large-scale units, with each 3′ long panel weighing in at nearly 150 lbs. Through the process of creating the terra cotta blocks for this project, Boston Valley proved their capabilities as a manufacturer that can make the client’s vision a reality, accommodating designs of unique profiles, sizes, and finishes.

Selldorf Architects chose to work with architectural ceramics for the exterior of 10 Bond due to the medium’s natural flexibility and durability. Terra cotta is known as a long lasting building material that can be formed into innumerable profiles with a variety of surface treatments. The luminous, russet panels on the exterior façade gleam with the full depth of tone that only ceramic glazes can offer.

The façade at 10 Bond is exemplary of Boston Valley’s TerraClad® Rainscreen façade system. This construction method affixes units of terra cotta paneling to the building using a uniform track and clip system, which makes maintenance and installation easier compared to conventional masonry.
