Toyota done






Hoselton Toyota had the ribbon cutting...very amusing.
The design comes out of Toyota's national image campaign...I won't mention the architect since he snubbed me on the way out.
Anyway we really just had to figure out how to fit the mask on these buildings. It came out better than I thought. The Owner played a heavy role and made a lot of changes on the fly. They broke away from the national design heavily on the interors...some works some doesn't.
I think I ended up more of the permit dog on this one than I thought but...it was an amusing project in some ways.
The panels we used were required by Toyota..they are pretty cool and really expensive. I did not think they would be so reflective. Hense the cloud shot. They have been selling out of their toyota shipment pretty quickly.

what really happened to rennaissance square??


We had a team meeting to "celebrate" the completion of Rennaissance Square...I summarized our discussions in something that reads like a poem...


ODE TO REN SQUARE

Oh Ren Square
With Moshe SO fair
Trumpets Blare
But Budgets scare
Moshe no dare

So

Associates care
Teams can share!
Redo by Flair

Wait

Consensus in air?
Theatre where?
Half transit tear?

Now

Maggie not share
Council not fair
No help mayor
Cooperation rare


Oh the nightmare
Deadline snare
Funding not there

Well

Outta my hair
All. Take care
So long Ren Square
