M.C. Ginsberg Objects of Art

Article Abstract:

Herbert Lewis Kruse Blunck Interior Architecture Ltd received the award of Best Showroom/Exhibit Space during the 19th Annual Interiors Awards Competition for impressively renovating the M.C. Ginsberg Objects of Art store. The West Des Moines, IA-based firm transformed the 3,000-sq-ft store into a serene, less flashy environment that encourages exploration. A neutral yet sophisticated interior was created with the use of plain materials such as unpainted cement boards and maple plywood. A circular structure of translucent plastic panels gives the impression of a gallery-within-a-gallery.
