An Urban Standout
When Altus Properties began development on Arterra, a luxury high-rise in Kansas City’s Crossroads Arts District, they sought a compelling brand that would complement the vibrant, eclectic neighborhood. Our team immersed ourselves in the environment, ultimately crafting the position Authentically Urban, reflective of the building’s unique architecture and dynamic surroundings. Inspired by an artist’s signature and by constructing a mixture of mediums — photography, pastels, paint and ink — into a distinct brand pattern, the result is an aesthetic that blends local art and urban culture with relaxed sophistication.
