Tetris Stone stonework at Denver Botanic Garden's Chihuly Exhibit.

We are very proud to have been involved in this project. At 1,411,116 visitors in the last year the Chihuly Exhibit was the most visited botanical exhibition in North America. This exhibition was also ranked 3rd by The American Garden Tourism Conference "Top 10 North American Gardens Worth Travelling For".

Denver Botanic Garden have attributed the success to not only Chihuly Exhibit but also the highly popular Hive Bistro. (We're pretty sure it's the pizza oven at Hive that people come for too)

After 1 year and 2 bazillion pizzas later, the pizza oven we built at Denver Botanical Gardens Hive Restaurant continues putting smiles on the guest faces. Job Satisfaction 100%!
