St. Joseph’s/Candler Pooler Parkway ACC

Design Studio Blue was commissioned to design a sculptural art wall for a 2-story public lobby at a new multispecialty medical clinic in Georgia. The design team played with the dilution of light and used a concave and convex curve to create a simple yet very complex woven form. This 21’ tall x 20’ wide woven sculptural wall is a glowing beacon visible inside and outside building and showcases an authentic calming experience for patients and staff.

Designed by Architect Gresham Smith, this 10-year, multi-phased project brings a broader range of services to the growing community west of Savannah. Phase I, an 83,000-square-foot campus, was completed in 2019. PS Art Consulting conceived of and designed the two-story feature wall upon entry, utilizing a versatile resin material. Colorful, translucent panels float between floors, giving patients both a sense of presence and privacy.

Down the hallways, a colorful backdrop of photos visually tell the story of the surrounding environment. We commissioned a local photographer to shoot landscapes and landmarks for a number of pieces produced for the walls. From marshlands and hay bales to railroad tracks and green pastures, familiar images connect people to place.
