Crafted for prospective sponsors and donors, the project’s Vision & Concept brochure delineates the necessity for an artist and makers' space, event venue, galleries, and classrooms, while advocating for the adaptive reuse of a downtown building.

The geometry of the logo is a reference to the Studio’s location on a hard-corner of the main downtown corridor.

The architect's use of large windows and glass to wrap and puncture the facade, bringing in light and opening the interior to the street, is echoed in the logo through the open space within the intersecting lines.
