e group Project Construction Update - Ponderosa Stables @ South Mountain



Update of the Ponderosa Stables project at South Mountain Park. The concrete hay bale amphitheater was installed this week. We collaborated with artist Kevin Berry to use his hay bale concept as an amphitheater for the project and proposed the staggered arrangement of the bales. Each bale weights over 1500 lbs and has 3 integral color blends. They were cast with a form mold created by Kevin and have the textures of the hay and binding twine imbedded. The completed design will have brown stabilized granite in the plaza and terraces, local boulders for bookends of the seating arcs, a custom raised planter in the plaza that uses a horse trough for a seat wall, and has a 54” boxed salvaged specimen Blue Palo Verde  planted in the center of the trough.
