The Colorado School of Mines is one of the most prestigious engineering universities in the country, and with the addition of Marquez Hall, a center for the petroleum-engineering program, its prominence continues to grow. This building was made possible, in large part, due to the generosity of donors, and ArtHouse was hired to design exhibits recognizing these benefactors, as well as to provide information to campus visitors. Inspiration for the donor recognition display came from one of the staple assignments of the Petroleum Engineering Department: the reproduction of a topographic map. Read more
This visually striking way to address the varying levels of donations to the School is informed by both the innovation of the School’s programs, as well as the research conducted in the Petroleum Engineering Department. The design is just as innovative and demonstrates an elegant blend of context and graphics. ArtHouse also designed six illuminated pillar displays to provide information about the many ways that petroleum engineering affects our lives, from its global and economic impact to the products we buy.
ArtHouse won a 2013 GDUSA American Graphic Design Awards Award of Recognition, a 2014 Graphis Design Annual Silver and a 2015 GDUSA American Graphic Design Awards Award of Recognition for this project.
