When You Give Arcturis a Paintbrush…

For St. Louis Design Week, Arcturis partnered with Kingdom House and Sherwin Williams to create a mural that celebrates design and community. While Arcturis spearheaded the creation of the mural, it was a truly collaborative event where people from Kingdom House and the St. Louis design community pitched in to complete the project.
Kingdom House, a community resource center, is a hub for all underserved people in our community. “Kingdom House believes in transformation…from the inside out. Through holistic programs and services, they promote empowerment and growth in individuals and families. They help the economically disadvantaged achieve economic independence, self-sufficiency and a path out of poverty.”
So, we set out to transform the side of the Kingdom House building with our collaborative event that shows how design can transform, communicate, and benefit community spaces like this. Our design is a collection of geometric forms that come together to create an abstracted image. These forms, when viewed as a whole, create an overall design that closely follows the design principles of unity and balance. We felt that this visually embodied the mission and spirit of Kingdom House.
