Please describe the project specifications

The Virginia Arts Festival approached us to design and install a unique structure for outdoor performing art showcases. The structure was to inspire creativity and draw attention from the public to the Virginia Arts Fest. The space helps protect hundreds of attendees while enjoying the arts scene in Virginia. The Virginia Arts Committee also allows the public to use the space so that it gives back to the people and community it serves.


What is unique or complex about the project?

The shape and design of the high spires and the "bat wing" over hang make this structure special. The look of the shape is unique enough but when you add the graphic design - made special for this project to keep with the themes of the VAF - you really have an eye catching structure.
