Kelly and David Patten
Atrium Flooring, 1993-4
City Campus, Sheffield Hallam University
linoleum
Location:
The Atrium, City Campus. (A-Z
p. 5 4F)
Description:
Pattern made of diagonally running
abstract shapes.
Commission:
Sheffield Hallam University. Kelly
and Patten were the Lead Artists for this, the first Phase of the City Campus
development.
Comment:
Lead Artists speak of conceiving
a colour palette for the City Campus. With the buildings providing a neutral
background, the interior colours would be predominantly cool, the exterior
warm. Blue was suggested as a key colour for the Atrium.
