From maquette to limestone

From the hand
to the building.

The work begins in the atelier, where drawings and physical maquettes establish its rhythm and depth. Developed with the architectural team and the stone carvers at Bybee, the composition carries the intimacy of hand-sculpted form into monumental limestone.
