Copper
Copper roofs are often one of the most architecturally distinguishable features of these structures. Today, architectural copper is used in roofing systems, flashings and copings, rain gutters and downpours, building expansion joints, wall cladding, domes, spires, vaults, and various other design elements. The history of copper in architecture can be linked to its durability, corrosion resistance, prestigious appearance, and ability to form complex shapes. For centuries, craftsmen and designers utilized these attributes to build aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting building systems.

Weathered Steel
Weathering steel is extremely resistant to corrosion caused by weather and other atmospheric conditions. Once the coating is gone, the steel ionizes, which makes it so the steel does not continue to rust and you won't have to worry about the panel being rusted all the way through. The base layer of steel will last just as long as other finishes (so you can expect your roof or siding to last between 40 and 70 years). Weathering steel creates an unbelievable, one-of-akind look. As the finish is exposed to different types of weather, it begins to rust into a gorgeous, rustic look over time

Brass
Brass. An alloy of copper and zinc, brass has a number of applications in the construction industry. It can be used exclusively for its stunning gold-like decorative look in buildings. Brass oen has a bright gold appearance, however, it can also be reddish-gold or silvery-white. A higher percentage of copper yields a rosy tone, while more zinc makes the alloy appear silver. Brass has higher malleability than either bronze or zinc.
Bronze
The term Architectural Bronze describes a metal alloy of copper, zinc and various other metals that contribute various qualities to the mix. The high proportion of the copper constituent imparts corrosion resistance and durability and the addition of manganese contributes tensile strength. Bronze. Advantages: Bronze is an alloy consisting mainly of copper but the addition of other metals (usually tin) produces an alloy much harder than plain copper. Bronze resists corrosion and metal fatigue better, and conducts heat and electricity, better than most steels.
