Serendipity Gallery
"Their attention to detail with telling you where your piece comes from and the history of the barn is really something fun."
Lisa Anne Houdyshell -Serendipity Gallery
Located in St. Louis’ historic Delmar Loop and opening in September of 2013, Serendipity Gallery is committed to showcasing contemporary artists who express themselves in paintings, photography, jewelry, sculpture, ceramics, wood, metal, and glass. Serendipity Gallery’s goal is to aid in your quest by bringing you uncommon objects in a way that is fresh, inviting, and informal.
The Challenge
When we were first approached by Lisa Houdyshell, a seasoned commercial lawyer and world traveler, she had recently decided to pursue a career in an area she loves even more, art. She has natural, impeccable taste in everything from sculpture, to interior design, photography and painting. That’s when Serendipity Gallery came to fruition.
When she located the retail space for this concept, Rustic Grain was fortunate enough to see the space in its original state and propose several ideas for this unique gallery.
The Approach
Utilizing Rustic Grains’ chosen medium, she instinctively saw what could be created for her gallery even before we could get the initial drawings complete. She envisioned a tiered display/checkout counter made entirely out of barn wood and reclaimed materials. We fleshed-out the design with her, custom built it and then accented the remaining space with antique tin roofing, barn wood pedestals, and barn wood doors with glass insets.
Her inspiration spurred some of our best work yet
