A reflection of Playa Vista’s vibrant landscape and future-forward spirit, this project brings together art, custom graphics, and placemaking to shape a distinctive tenant experience. Inspired by nearby trails and the coastal landscapes of Southern California, our team developed dimensional lobby murals, bespoke wayfinding, and curated artwork that transform the space into a refined, welcoming arrival experience.

Each of the project’s interior courtyards was designed in collaboration with @hlwinternational . Organized into four biome-inspired zones, the courtyards feature unique names, graphics, and sculptural elements that transform everyday circulation into moments of discovery.

In the foothills biome, our team designed and painted an immersive, 100-foot mural of a nighthawk soaring over hills and forest. Using ethereal, chalk-like techniques to evoke depth and movement, this installation highlights our commitment to distinct spatial identity, inviting users to slow down and experience the environment through towering redwoods and shifting light. Extending the narrative beyond the mural, custom floor graphics weave through the courtyard, aligning with the knoll-like arrangement of the seating and echoing the movement of fog drifting across the scene. by @spmdesign

Upon arriving at Edwards Lifesciences in Irvine, visitors are greeted by a larger-than-life portrait of Miles “Lowell” Edwards. The co-inventor of the world’s first artificial heart valve is depicted on the concrete facade using the Artico Neo process. This textured concrete continues inside, guiding visitors through the lobby and up to the second level where a custom sculpture of the iconic heart valve that we designed and fabricated is proudly suspended. This was a full team effort in collaboration with OU from concept to installation to ensure the imagery and execution honored the narrative.

We had a blast hosting the latest @segd_orangecounty event at our office last week! It was a festive night of tacos, connection, and storytelling. We were inspired by everyone’s inventive use of materials during our workshop as they translated the experience of their favorite meal into something physical. Thanks to everyone who joined us! by @spmdesign

We’re proud to have supported our friends at OU in bringing Heartburst to life for Edwards Lifesciences. This sculpture honors the patients whose lives have been positively impacted by the company’s innovative structural heart technologies. Crafted from Malaysian-sourced bamboo, this piece draws inspiration from the original Heartburst that debuted at Burning Man 2023.

Our team had a heavy hand in the design engineering and fabrication, playing a major role in transforming the creative concept into a large-scale, buildable installation. We’re honored to have helped shape this powerful work from concept to reality.

Excited to share our work for this confidential tech client in San Diego that supports specialized electronics labs with a culture rooted in creativity, sustainability, and wellness. We partnered with @smithgroup’s interior architect team to develop a distinct narrative and visual strategy—a cohesive transition between the buzz of the urban city and the calm of San Diego’s natural landscape.

We designed, fabricated, and installed sculptures, floor graphics, murals, environmental graphics, styling, immersive conference rooms, wayfinding, and curated art. Our process was deeply collaborative, ensuring our scope felt integrated with playful moments and hidden surprises for the users.

The layered elevator lobby installation was designed using geometry pulled from the storytelling throughout the floor, with integrated viewfinders showcasing vintage postcards from iconic San Diego locations. As users traverse the floor, they are greeted by a Monte Carlo-themed conference room, Balboa Park wall-mounted sculptures, and a poster series highlighting a cyclist’s journey from downtown to home. These areas, with the rest of the floor, weave together local identity and a sense of belonging for the client’s employees.

Thank you @interiordesignmag for the feature! (Link in our bio)

For their Tustin office, we collaborated with Subaru and CBRE to create a playful outback experience. Steeped in a culture of adventure and exploration, Subaru’s DNA is rooted in the open road and the rugged landscapes. Similar to how their customers might seek out nature for a moment of solitude, visitors can sit inside this giant fiberglass boulder for a moment of reprieve.
