The opportunity

Small installations. Visible impact.

Use existing planters to add color, character, and a recognizable downtown signature.

01 · Place-led

Fits downtown

Scaled to existing planters and storefronts.

02 · Outdoor-ready

Built to last

Weather-ready steel with practical mounting.

03 · Easy to phase

Start small

Begin with a few planters. Grow from there.

Form studies

Choose a direction.

Explore floral, radial, industrial, and open-form ideas for locally fabricated pieces.

Reference images show direction only; they are not presented as original work or designs to copy.

Downtown view

See it in place.

A shared material palette could turn individual planters into one connected downtown experience—each piece distinct, but clearly part of the same vision.

Final design, placement, and scale would follow site conditions and Association priorities.
