Materials we saw and see potential in:
Casement windows - Sherman: make two big cuts in exterior walls? more likely to use for interior partition walls/dividers
Wood flooring - Sherman: about 600 square feet in big room we toured, probably 1000 sf in entire building or about one floor's worth (of 601 tully), create different patches of floor with different materials on first floor
Orange plastic freezer door flaps (can't find a name for these anywhere) - Sherman: use as a door before a door, could be used outside somehow
Gray tile - Sherman: at least 40 sf worth, use in the kitchen or bathroom? maybe too expected, make the tiles into a blackboard/whiteboard, use a floor or wall surface, install with the ridged back facing out instead of smooth tile but can that work
Reflective sign material - Andrew's dad: use outside as trim, use in bathroom, use to line the gallery boxes
Wood shelves/trays - Restore at case supply: about three dozen on first look, use as shelving on interior wall either upright as shallow shelves/display or horizontally for depth, combine to make moving gallery wall/bookshelf, alternate shelf and surface
Electrical wire - Case supply: a possibility for south wall or fence?
Glass blocks - use in a different way or too corporate?
Glasses - Restore at case supply: use as light fixtures by cutting bottoms off or put LEDs inside, make into a wall by placing right side up and upside down side by side, insert into a wall as small circular windows to look through or like a glass block wall except with circles, make into low hanging lights, place into a frame and hang from ceiling
Granite - Restore at case supply: alternate with wood slats for flooring
Ducts and/or pipes - Case supply: cut to different heights and use outside as planters, too industrial?
Possible themes: every room as an individual collage (example - amsterdam nord), all materials used as a multiple of some dimension, everything at kid's scale, and translucent vs solid
