Design Goals: Connecting to the Outdoors

Often times it's necessary to get out from behind the computer screen and find inspiration from our own experiences.

A goal for one our of projects is to "Connect to the Outdoors" within each and every space. Our team tackled two initiatives in one afternoon, enjoying Linton Hopkins' new Cafe AND the lush greenery of Atlanta's Botanical Gardens. 

Even though everything wasn't in its springtime bloom, nature's radiating, spiraling, curling, organic patterns were exquisite.  We were in awe of the contrasting lines outlining details of stems, veins, and connections.
