Architectural Echo-Blocks Project
Raccoon River Nature Lodge
West Des Moines, IA
The Raccoon River Nature Lodge, located in Raccoon River Park in West Des Moines, IA, is a unique space for various gatherings in a natural setting. Echo-Blocks originated as a custom solution for this project. They were created in two patterns: one with images of a cracked river bed and the other with cottonwood leaves and branches. A continuous linear band of the custom design Echo-Blocks runs throughout the exterior and interior of the building at a height that marks the water level of the Great Iowa Flood in 1993.
