Places you’ll find our work

Corporate / WORK

  • An intentional art program can offer a multitude of benefits beyond enhanced ambiance. Artwork can give a brand voice; it tells a story reflecting the organization's values and cultural identity. Additionally, a well-curated art collection can be a powerful tool for brand differentiation and client engagement, making a lasting impression on visitors and clients. Research shows art has the power to stimulate imagination, encourage open-minded thinking, spark fresh ideas among employees, and foster connections between individuals from varied backgrounds, facilitating a more collaborative and inclusive work culture.

    By incorporating diverse art pieces, developing corporate brand standards, and incorporating innovative cultural programs like sponsored Artist-In-Residency programs, organizations can foster a sense of community engagement and social responsibility.

  • Solutions for a corporate art collection may include historical research and image curation, framed originals, reproductions and commissions that support the design and culture, donor and founder-dedicated creation, workforce art programs, client-focused art events, monument-sized installations, and murals.

  • In healthcare environments, evidence-based artwork plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall patient experience and promoting healing. Many age-related conditions and medications can affect the way someone sees color. Research has shown that incorporating specific imagery and colors into healthcare settings can reduce stress and anxiety, lower blood pressure, and even shorten hospital stays. By strategically selecting art based on evidence of its positive impact, healthcare facilities can create a more comforting and calming atmosphere for patients, visitors, and staff alike. Evidence-based artwork contributes to a more aesthetically pleasing environment and supports the holistic well-being of individuals within the healthcare setting, thereby improving overall patient outcomes. Moreover, art has the power to humanize the healthcare space.
