The City of Lougheed unveils public artwork by renowned artists in the new Neighbourhood One community
When showstopping creative works seamlessly integrate cultural cachet into a condo development, the true synergy between art and architecture comes alive.
"SHAPE as a group has a deep commitment to creative work, so we revelled in the opportunity to add public art," says Bak Wong, EVP Planning & Design, SHAPE. "Opinions and influence on art selection routinely came from all members of our team." "Interconnections were a theme in the design from the internal layout of spaces to its different frontages that relate to the urban context," says Wong. "In massing, the amenity building is perched onto the southwest corner as an architectural feature that overlooks the master-planned community."
Jun Kaneko's 'Untitled ' and 'Untitled ' sculptures , are located throughout The City of Lougheed and encourage viewers to look up, altering their interaction with space.
