In BNIM’s hometown of Kansas City, Missouri, the Arts have shaped and enhanced the public realm. Across buildings, streets, atriums, parks, and public spaces, Kansas City’s displays of public art each bring a unique purpose and artist’s perspective to the community.
As the design of Kansas City International Airport Terminal and Garage establishes a new regional gateway, art will continue to hold an important role in representing and reflecting the spirit of Kansas City. Leading the design of KCI Airport Garage with JE Dunn, BNIM has had the opportunity to be involved in Kansas City's largest One Percent for Art Program initiative, working with the Municipal Arts Commission to initiate a call to artists to help enhance airport-goers’ experiences through art.
