Client: Albina Veltman

Overview

The Client had requested design ideas to transform an existing support column into an architectural feature. After several collaborative meetings, Adam and the client came up with a functional design which was successfully executed on time and on budget. The commission consisted of four panels measuring 92" x 16", designed to lock together around an existing support column. The panels are covered in over 1000 2"x 3" hand-cut copper tiles which have been oxidized to achieve specific colour/texture effects.

Goals

The Client wished to have Adam's unique copper artwork as a feature in the room. The goal was to transform a regular support column into a three dimensional work of art. Due to the collaborative nature of a commissioned artwork, the final product reflects both the artist's and client's ideas and visions.

Process

The original request involved finding a way to transform a regular support column into an architectural art feature. The process began with a series of meetings between artist and client. Several ideas were shared which slowly condensed down to the final concept plan, after which the project commenced.
