Project Sheet PDF Download

Description
This project required my working with a national historic monument, the 15th-century carved stone courtyard of Casa de Cordon, where Christopher Columbus was welcomed home from his New World Voyage by Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand. Now used as the headquarters of a bank, my sculpture focuses on utilizing the atrium airspace while respecting the delicate environment.
