new architectural project ...history in the details

A new architectural installation is in progress, celebrating Denver's historic 1904 Evans School House and its Gothic Revival design. Vacant since the 1970s, the school is now being reimagined as a hub for dining, retail, and creative spaces alongside a modern residential tower.

Inspired by the building’s intricate brick and terra cotta details, the artwork captures its rich textures and craftsmanship.

We started the design process with grayscale palette. Given the gray tile in the hallway where the pieces are to be installed, the clients requested options in color.

A refined palette of warm honey ambers, silver, black, and a touch of Denver’s blue sky. was selected The installation includes two striking 4’ x 4’ panels and a complementary 2.5’ x 4’ piece, seamlessly connecting past and present within the new development.

The pieces were expedited for a fast ship by date with a 3 week turn around time. I’m looking forward to final pix of these installed.
