Pinnacle Bank HQ, Omaha, NE. Talley Fisher, ‘Sunrise Cascade’. Powder-coated Aluminum Panels. Pinnacle Bank’s LEED Gold headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska called for art that reflected natural elements. Original commissions combined traditional and contemporary art and brought life to the subtly designed space. The atrium sculpture is a landmark piece and can be seen from the highway with the dramatic night lighting. We worked with Avant Architects https://avant-architects.com and the bank’s VP.
Tagge Rutherford, Financial Advisors, Omaha, NE. Looking to create a dramatic focal point for their atrium cost-effectively was the main goal for this commission. Hackwith Appraisals & Consulting facilitated all aspects of the project including the installation via a scissor lift.
