How can you bring festive cheer to your development? 🎨 Collaborate with artists on a seasonal mural! This One Paseo wall, designed by @blacklambstudio and painted by @paintressava , is the perfect example of seasonal sparkle in action!
Loved seeing Houston’s art scene expand with the Untitled Art Fair this year.
We enjoyed connecting with galleries from
around the globe and visiting our friends at @ardenwhitegallery , who featured one of our
favorites, @marcelrozek .

At DPA, we bridge client vision, tenant experience, and artist intent.
For The Line of Land and Sky (2022), commissioned for a corporate office on Towne Centre Drive in San Diego, we partnered with @groundlevelsd landscape architect and artist @phillipksmith3 to seamlessly integrate the work into the site.
The result: a sculpture that shifts with light and perspective, staying true to its conceptual roots while transforming the campus experience. ✨

Tiptoeing through an old friend, Jardine!
This charming residential tower located in Hollywood was a blast to work on with the very talented SKB and our amazing client, Kilroy Realty!🌼

World Photography Day reminds us of the magic hidden in everyday moments. Jin-Woo Prensena’s new Wildflower series, captured along summer hikes in Austria, embodies this beautifully:
“Photography, for me, is about taking what is brief—like a wildflower’s bloom—and preserving it as something timeless, to be cherished by many.”🌸

When squirrels become fine art 🐿️
Francisco Moreno fuses classic elegance with playful surrealism, crafting richly detailed worlds where squirrels steal the spotlight — timeless, witty, and delightfully unexpected.

Happy 4th of July!!! 🇺🇸✨
We’re tipping our hats to the grit, grace, and quiet strength of hard-working Americans including our feathered and four legged friends🐄🐓🐖🐐
This one’s an ode to the American spirit, seen through the eyes of Randal Ford’s Farm Life Collection. Ford’s work captures the heart of America in the most unexpected faces. @randalford

Behind the scenes at Kilroy Oyster Point 🔨🦺⭐️After nearly two years of planning, coordinating, and curating, the installation is finally complete! From amenity spaces and lobbies to lounges and spec suites every detail across this expansive campus was placed with intention by our team.
Huge thanks to our incredible install crew who brought it all to life piece by piece! Final photos coming your way soon, stay tuned...📸

There’s something so powerful about discovering art where you least expect it. 🐘✨
We loved coming across elephants throughout Hermann Park. The Great Elephant Migration isn’t just an art installation; it’s a global movement for conservation and coexistence.
Made from dried lantana plants, these 100 life-sized elephants are on view through April. This exhibition is a striking reminder of the impact of public art, inviting us to think about sustainability, ecosystems, and the universal values that unite us.
