Prepping for our college baseball visitors, we did our yearly North Downtown Trash Pick Up last night! Hot + windy? Yep! Fun + productive?! Double yep! Truly, this is one of our favorite events of the year as we enjoy time spent together while investing in our fantastic neighborhood!

Public art transforms space into place, building connection, identity, and a shared sense of ownership. We integrate art early in the design process to align with client and community goals, advocate for its inclusion, and give artists the freedom to bring their own voice. Prioritizing local artists and diverse installation types strengthens our neighborhoods and supports the local arts economy.

Great neighborhoods are built through collaboration. We're proud to work alongside PGSA, Bluestone Development, and LALA to create spaces where local art is woven into the fabric of the Millwork Commons District, making it a more vibrant and memorable place for everyone.

Bloc Fitness Omaha came to us looking for a fresh, welcoming space in Omaha’s urban core where anyone can “be fit and live well.” Our team turned a lower level into a bright, accessible studio with added windows, opened sightlines, and layered brand forward finishes to flood the space with light and energy. The result is a more connected, visible, and community focused environment for both staff and members.

Let us show you how color does more than brighten a space! Color shapes how people feel, connect, and experience the environments around them. Thoughtful use of color can inspire creativity, improve focus, reduce stress, and create a stronger sense of comfort and belonging.

Color can enhance storytelling, strengthen identity, improve wayfinding, and transform everyday spaces into memorable experiences.

When intentionally integrated into design, color becomes more than an aesthetic choice — it becomes a tool for creating spaces that support people, spark emotion, and build community!

Wayne State College's new residence hall, Stearns Hall, was built around a simple idea: that a student's living environment directly shapes how they learn, connect, and grow.

The design moves away from traditional campus housing conventions, prioritizing flexibility and comfort instead. Thoughtful lounge configurations and wellness amenities make shared living more functional, while private non-gendered bathrooms reflect a genuine commitment to inclusive design. Environmental graphic design grounds the building in Wayne State's identity, supporting wayfinding and community in a way that feels considered rather than incidental.

It's these kind of details that lingers with prospective students long after the campus tour ends!
