GROW | biophilic design

I’ve loved coming back to GROW with some new directions. My ‘ivy on concrete’ wall has evolved to include abstracted text forms and an expanded role for the matte grout as a canvas for etching + varnish elements.

GROW 4.1 is ready for installation at a Chicago law firm. The firm’s design incorporates biophilic design elements (including potted plants and a living wall). Looking forward to seeing this piece installed as part of their contemporary art program.

The client opted for a lower contrast iron gray grout for this project. This gives a true concrete look and allows the etched elements to be more visible.

Just add light. GROW is happy in any lighting conditions.
