ARCO Design/Build

Overview

ARCO Design/Build is a leading commercial construction company with locations across the United States. With big projects and big clients, it’s important that their offices impress prospects and signify their strengths to visitors. 

 

After their Atlanta office was remodeled, and following a recent rebranding, ARCO needed a partner who could bring their brand to life in a way that would inspire guests and employees alike.

Offering design, printing, fabrication, and installation, Phase 3 was a natural choice to realize the new brand throughout the renovated ARCO Atlanta offices. Our team consulted closely with ARCO to understand their brand, their culture, and how the office space is really used by their employees.

A dramatic, energy-filled lobby now sets the stage for the experience at ARCO. 

Custom-made concrete sculptures reaching 8 feet high now welcome guests, as LED lighting creates a vivid and eye-catching halo effect around a dimensional ARCO logo.

Attractive messages of encouragement and compelling reminders of company ethos are now integrated into custom walls installed in high-traffic areas.

The sculptures in the entry way were unique and custom made. This was our team's first time working with concrete in a way where we had to create custom concrete molds to the specific shape and size. It took a lot of testing and tweaking to get the molds just right. Once assembled the sculptures were 8ft tall and each concrete base was upwards of 500lbs. These really made a huge impact in their lobby.

The recreation area received special treatment as well: An “honor wall” was designed and constructed for this room, displaying a giant ARCO “A” made from rebar pegs, symbolic of the company’s role as a leader in the construction industry. Each peg has a marker to celebrate a specific employee achievement, demonstrating the power of teamwork every day in an unforgettable way.

Results

A total of nineteen separate pieces were created for the project. Phase 3 began designing in May and had everything completely installed by August, making sure every single component was perfect while always moving with speed.
