Overview

The project's location in Central Florida informed the overall design intent and artwork concept in this renovation of the Sheraton Vistana Resort's Welcome Center. We chose to reference the location by highlighting the Lake Region and by using natural and reclaimed materials throughout the artwork design.

Goals

The design intent was to implement and highlight the use of natural or reclaimed materials as key elements in the commissioned artwork while paying homage to the location of the property in the Lake Region of Central Florida.

Process

The designer, the art consultants and the artists' respective talents really came together to ensure these ideas of using natural and reclaimed materials would dovetail in elegant, artful and engaging works of art. As an example, the Lake Maps pieces behind the reception desks involved a team that included a cartographer, woodworker, metalsmith and a large format printing specialist to bring the concept of layering a variety of materials to create two large scale topographical map artworks. The final, finished pieces are ultimately a collage of interesting materials and artists' ideas at their very root.

Additional Info

Projects that impose what sometimes initially may seem like a limitation, (the use of natural or reclaimed materials), often ultimately prove to inspire the purest of creative resources from a talented team.

The CODAworx Manifesto

  • Art matters. Attention to the details of our environment leads to love of place, which brings us to take responsibility for the spaces where we live and work. And by extension, the people with whom we live and work. And by extension, to our local communities, our cities, our nations, and our world.
  • We champion the role of artists in our society. We need artists to provide us with inspiration, creativity, and imagination, and to help us envision a better world.
  • Architects and designers know that remarkable design can change everything. They connect the dots across disciplines, collaborating with artists to make the world a more beautiful place. They are the ultimate patrons of the arts.
  • In the process, design professionals promote imagination and creativity, and through their commissions, make original art integral to and accessible in people's lives.
  • Art in our public and private spaces helps us fight ordinary buildings, ordinary streets, ordinary cities. We celebrate the extraordinary.
  • The architecture of our buildings and the design of our interiors affect our happiness and well-being. Each of us deserves a daily dose of inspiration.
"Leave good footprints." -Ellen Kochansky, artist
