[depot] Boyer Park







Together with a group of my peers, we redesigned an existing event space for the management of Boyer Park. They had enclosed a large concrete pad but had not finished the interior. There was only one stipulate to the project and that was that we had to maintain the existing arched wood ceiling beams, which were in fantastic condition.






When looking for inspiration for a concept for design, the surrounding landscape and the Lewis and Clark Trail, which runs right through the space, were immediate inspiration pieces. The landscape provided the color palette and material choices and the trail provided direction.






Because the trail leads right up to the front door, we chose to use long cedar decking to further the feeling of still being on the trail. Stained concrete provides a durable flooring surface for the majority of the space. Natural elements like wood and glass complete the rustic elegance of the Boyer Park Event Space.
