Better late than never, no?

Here are shots from an install of a reading nook for Children’s Hospital of Michigan we did way back in late May (can you believe it’s the middle of July? Neither can we). This piece was designed and executed by TORK. It’s powder coated aluminum with cast resin leaves, and stands about 15′ tall. Lots of work went into it’s creation, and the hospital folks were well pleased.  And yes, it is cool in pictures, but even cooler in person. So, if you’re in the Detroit metro area, check it out.
