GREENWOOD RISING OKLAHOMA BLACK HISTORY MUSEUM
In 2020, DeVinci had the honor of participating in a historic project as a small business from Oklahoma. The striking white GFRC shell of Tulsa’s Black History Museum stands as a powerful symbol, elegantly juxtaposed against the deep charcoal gray of its brick walls. This innovative design goes beyond aesthetics; it embodies a profound narrative.
Equipped with powerful LED fixtures integrated into each panel’s frame, the museum’s façade projects light through multiple openings in the GFRC, transforming the structure into a captivating and evocative installation at night.
In a commitment to maximizing efficiency, our design and production teams collaborated closely with the architect on key aspects of GFRC constructability and structural assembly. By contributing to the realization of this architectural gem, Greenwood Rising, we aim to acknowledge the historical injustices faced by Black communities and to foster a path toward healing and understanding in the future.
