~2700 Year Old Ancient Bog Oak

The Veneer Source has recently partnered to produce an ancient ~ 2700-year-old Bog Oak log. The material has a vivid taupe/grey color and the grain has depth and contrast to it that would be beautiful as architectural paneling, casework or furniture. 

Time Period History: The 7th century BC spanned the years 700 through 600 BC. This time period had a major impact on human culture; the Chinese invented printing, the first metal coins were used by the Lydians of western Anatolia and allegedly iron was discovered in China. The Assyrian Empire dominated the Near East during this century, exercising formidable power over neighbors like Babylon and Egypt. The Assyrians left the world stage permanently when their capital Nineveh was destroyed in 612 BC. These events gave rise to the Neo-Babylonian Empire, which would dominate the region for much of the following century.

Umass Lowell - Albert Sherman Center

Helping to create a facility that will teach some of the world's most capable minds was very special to our team. The Albert Sherman Center of Umass Lowell used quartered, AA grade, FSC Controlled Wood Hard Maple throughout the facility. This choice combined with the ample natural lighting and white complimenting surfaces make the space feel light and clean.

Katherine Craven of the Umass Building Authority said this was, "the largest publicly funded construction project in Massachusetts history." Designed by ARC, the $400 million Albert Sherman Center is a 512,000-square-foot facility for biomedical research and education was completed in January 2013. A certified LEED Gold facility, the Sherman Center expands and unifies the UMass Medical School’s Worcester campus, doubles its research capacity and supports the school’s new learner-centered curriculum. The project was built on-time and under budget, a tribute to the collaborative efforts of the entire design, engineering and construction team (arcusa.com.)
