I’m excited to share a dipytch that has recently been installed in a healthcare facility in California.

The brief was to create a VISTA rooted in the client’s local landscape and native foliage. Drawing inspiration from the Empire Inland Desert region, the design features distinctive desert geometries shaped by clustered soapweed, hummingbird mint, and vibrant orange poppies.

A background of linework—created with fine glass stringers—suggests windblown grasses, while textured concrete hills layer and recede into the distance.

I hope this work brings a moment of shimmer, movement, and visual interest for patients, staff, and visitors in a busy healthcare setting.
