A Middle West Collective Project

We, A Middle West Collective Project, have facilitated and completed the preparatory wall design work on the last two art installations for the Violet hour facade and each has maintained an environmentally conscious approach while promoting local artists and community thoughtfulness. More to share about the Middle West Collective Project soon.

URBAN SALON: Wicker Park Salon

The project began with a complete demolition of the interior. All building materials were either salvaged or contained recycled content, all paints used are low VOC, all plumbing fixtures used are low flow and Eco friendly. 3CC constructed all new walls, installed new doors, base and case moldings, installed all low voltage data and phone systems, repaired and refinished the flooring systems, removed and rebuilt the kitchens and bathrooms, built the new wash station area, installed all millwork, lighting packages, new mechanical systems, and completed renovations of the facade, etc. Highlighted in the imagery above is the Reception and lounge area and a wall installation designed by The Mighty Bear Cats.
The Circle Salon is located in the Bucktown neighborhood of Chicago. Take a look at http://thecirclesalon.com/ We appreciate the opportunity to meet and work with like minded individuals.

DWELLING: Oakbrook

This is a sustainable green build single family home that will, once completed, house a family of four. 3CC has had the opportunity to work with the architect and client in value engineering the mechanical systems, finish material selections; added value of deconstruction benefits and other areas of the home to help reach the clients desired budget while maintaining the function and aesthetic sensibilities captured within these renderings.

Collaborating with this innovative architectural group and a client dedicated to a more efficient and sustainable lifestyle created a cohesive project team, which speaks to the collective and sustainable sensibilities of 3CC, the architect, and the client. We appreciate and look forward to contributing to this forward thinking project dynamic.

All of the renderings, design and architecture were preformed by the talented and innovative group, Garofalo Architects.
