Drake Olmsted Center - Branded walls
Des Moines, IA
Andalusia provided design and fabrication services for the renovation of Drake University’s Olmsted Center, delivering systems throughout the space. Our team collaborated closely with Drake's facilities and graphics team to develop three unique surfaces, which transformed the Olmsted Center into a refined, welcoming environment that reflects Drake’s campus character and supports its role as a central student hub.
