Elevate draws inspiration from the vibrant and energetic spirit of Jake’s Skatepark in Baltimore, MD. The design concept mirrors the vivid colors, playful graphics, and interactive spaces within the skatepark. Raw materials like concrete and wood are used to emulate the urban, industrial character. Fluid lines and curves of skatepark ramps and bowls inspired architectural elements such as curvilinear casework, flowing partitions, and dynamic ceiling designs.
