Housing one of the largest collections of art and design in the Southeast, Charlotte’s Mint Museum boasts a modern, minimalist aesthetic. Featured throughout the interior, Trex Commercial Products’ glass railings add to the ambiance while helping visitors safely explore the oldest museum in South Carolina. We also provided free-standing, lighted stainless handrail on the building’s exterior.
