Our first installation of four is complete! This was a ceiling sculpture for Medical City Dallas Hospital.
Here’s a before shot, as Matt and Ben got all the shapes organized and staged:
And here’s final piece:
Bon Voyage
Our next four weeks include: four installations in four different cities, a weekend camping trip (to celebrate Matt’s son’s 9th birthday!), and a joint family vacation for Matt’s and Ben’s families. We’re not sure it’s all humanly possible, but we’re about to find out! Stay tuned…
Lobby Sculpture Creation 101
Take this shape, multiply it by 5,000, powder coat each shape a really bright color, and then you’ll have our Jersey City lobby sculpture.
Shiny Stuff
Here’s a little sneak peek at the materials we’re using for the Dallas medical office ceiling sculpture.
Good E-mail
We really love these two types of e-mails:
We want to work with you.
We’re glad we worked with you.
This e-mail, from our clients at Yale, is the latter type, and it sure made our day.
“You have given us such a magical creation. I wanted you to know our gratitude and the wonder it is already inspiring. The group feels you hit a home run.”
Staircase Pre-Fab #3 Installation
Matt and Ben just returned from Connecticut to install this Pre-Fab #3 mobile in the staircase of a medical building at Yale University. All went smoothly, which is always nice to report.
Paper Chain People Ceiling Sculpture
We managed to drag ourselves home from the forest, and now we’re back to the grind. We have a busy few months head!
Here’s one project in our queue. This sculpture will hang in the lobby of the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.
The clients wanted something to liven up the area, but didn’t want anything too abstract. So we took their logo—a paper chain of two people—and designed this feature, which incorporates tons of little paper-chain people. (Except the paper people will actually be METAL.) We’re excited to see it come together!
Summer Break
Matt and Ben and families took a break from mobile making to camp, swim, hike, jump off cliffs, bathe in waterfalls, stuff like that. It was amazing. Please summer, never end.
Jersey City Lobby Sculpture
Here’s a fun project in our queue! This ceiling sculpture will hang in the main lobby of a brand-new high-rise apartment in Jersey City, New Jersey, just outside of New York City. The piece will span about 30 feet to add a dynamic feel to the lobby. It will also incorporate pops of color to brighten up the space.
Staircase Pre-Fab #3 Space
Matt and Ben are heading to Connecticut soon to install this flowing Pre-Fab #3 mobile in the staircase of a medical building. Meanwhile, here are a few “before” shots of the space. Stay tuned for some glamorous “after” shots!
