Apartment Lobby Art
ZGF Architects
locations: Indigo Building, Portland Oregon
my role: design + color
The lobbies on each of the seventeen floors in downtown Portland contain a colorful glass tile mural that gradates from one floor to the next. The pattern design conveys movement, speaks to the height of this building and provides a unique identifying color palette for each floor. The colors of the artwork at each of the lobbies, when viewed in section, create a 17-floor gradient where colors from one floor fade up to the next floor. The blues on floor 6 fade to greens, yellows and teals on floor 7, which in turn fade to reds, purples, oranges and whites on the floors above. The color pattern serves as a unifying and identifying design element for each lobby.
