Terracotta, from the Latin terra cocta (literally "cooked earth") has provided builders with a durable structural and decorative material for thousands of years, indeed historians tell us that it was being produced for use in construction as early as 1400BC. Architectural terracotta - made from a fine blend of clays and furnace-fired until vitrified - was used extensively in external wall facing applications from the 19th century onwards. Glazed and unglazed terracotta panels provided an attractive, durable and inexpensive protective skin to cover or complement brickwork, and evidence of their remarkable durability can be clearly seen on the exteriors of many Victorian buildings.
Designed by internationally renowned Rafael Violy Architects, One Vesta Street is the third development by Manchester Life in this previously industrial area of Ancoats. Over 4000m2 of SureClad ceramic granite in shades of mid-grey and cream were used on this ground-breaking Proton Beam Therapy Centre - the first in the UK. The faades provide continuity of design with other areas of The Christie previously clad with Shackerley materials; and also assist with creating a familiar ambiance for patients using various departments through their treatment.
