Studio SC’s work at the Southern Ute Cultural Center and Museum was featured in the Seattle DJC today.

The southwest Colorado facility was created to help preserve and share the culture, language, and history of the Southern Ute tribe, and we infused these aspects into our environmental graphics and wayfinding program.  Jones & Jones Architects designed the building, which opened in May. 

A welcome gallery anchors two wings that curve around a courtyard. The gallery’s conic form is drawn from cultural sources such as the teepee, wickiup, taut skin of a drum and a woman’s shawl. Translucent cladding around the gallery allows it to glow inward during the day and outward at night.
