Ford Field

Detroit, Michigan, USA

Ellerbe Becket provided interior design and environmental graphic design services for Ford Field, a regulation size NFL stadium nestled into a grouping of existing 1920s warehouse buildings.

Layers of graphic history chronicle a period from Art Deco to today's celebrations. The heyday of the existing '20s warehouses is resurrected in graphic style, along with visual clues created in the more modern style of the program. This blending of the past and present creates an inviting and impressive new home for the Detroit Lions.
