Hubcaps

Redwood City, CA | Hubcaps, Stainless Steel | 13’D | 2021

Overview

Gordon was commissioned by the County of San Mateo to create a gateway installation for a new parking structure, designed by Watry Design Inc., in Redwood City, CA that will support current and future needs for the new County Office Building #3. This new office complex is being constructed as part of a massive project to improve government services and facilities for both residents and employees of San Mateo County.

Gordon’s installation, titled Hubcaps, brings a sense of whimsy and creates a welcoming entrance for users of the facility. Consisting of 1,000 hubcaps applied to a large spherical structure, Hubcaps elevates an everyday parking garage experience by bringing a bit of fun and playfulness to the environment.
