Recently, Van Dyck Murphy studio was among the winning designers for the Alleyway Project, an international public art competition that will result in the re-envisioning of an alleyway in downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan. They are also in the process of designing and fabricating a ceramic 3D-printed masonry screen wall in downtown St. Louis.
