The Crow Museum of Asian Art at University Texas Dallas is a stunning architectural addition to the university’s campus that showcases Asian art in a space that marries culture and tradition to carefully-curated design.
We were brought on board to deliver 28,000 SF of high-gloss polished concrete and 9,700 SF of honed matte concrete. This ambitious project required a custom approach to meet the precise design and functional goals of the architect, Morphosis, and general contractor, Beck.
