Palm Springs, April 1955

Platform Apartments, Raleigh, NC 2023

Designed to appeal to the modern adventurer with a midcentury aesthetic, the mural draws inspiration from the transformative era of post- World War II America—an era which saw a fundamental shift in the way ordinary Americans related to the world outside of their everyday lives. Rendered in a style evocative of a traveler’s sketchbook, the mural intertwines a tapestry of tropical palm fronds with iconic mid century architecture—sleek lines, bold forms, and the playful interplay between shadow and light. A tangible memento, intimately chronicled in soft hues and loose linework, evoke a sense of nostagia and the romance of adventure with a touch of luxury.
