Architecture and Design | Pain Treatment Centers of America

Back in the fall of 2020, I worked with an interior designer with Wittenberg Delony & Davidson Architects in Little Rock to capture interior photos for one of their latest projects in heath care bulidings: The clinic and surgery center at Pain Treatment Centers of America located in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

Due to the on-going COVID-19 global pandemic, we chose to photograph on a day when surgeries were not taking place to minimize exposure to others and to easily maintain six feet of social distancing.

When it was time for the exterior photos, Mother Nature really put on a show and gave us nearly perfect conditions for cotton candy pink clouds and sunset with stunning sun rays. During retouching, we kept the sunset colors a little more natural so as not to distract from the beauty of the building.

Commercial Interiors | Rock Dental Brands | Evo Business Environments

In case you didn’t know, the world slowed down for a quite a while earlier this spring.

The global pandemic Covid-19 tore through Arkansas, the rest of the US and the world (it’s still on a tear) but in early March, we knew little about it. On Friday March 13, 2020, I teamed up with long-time client, Evo Business Environments to photograph the corporate headquarters of Rock Dental Brands located in Little Rock’s East Village.

We were lucky to get this photo shoot in when we did because that following Monday, the State of Arkansas as well as much of the US, shut down non-essential businesses for several months and a huge portion of the workforce, started working from home. That trend continues today.

Here are some of my favorite photos from that shoot.

Commercial Interiors | Project with Evo Business Environments | Karen E. Segrave

I once again have the opportunity to work with EVO Business Environments on two recent projects for the Arkansas Federal Credit Union. The first project was photos for their IT headquarters located in Jacksonville, Arkansas.

Every other IT department I’ve ever been in was closed off, dark, boring and completely devoid of any atmosphere. AFCUs redo was just the opposite.

A warm and inviting foyer seamlessly flowed into the main work room that features open air cubicles, a common sitting area, and privacy work stations for phone calls.

My favorite part of the building was completely random, abstract and unique wall murals and graphics located in just about every work area. The murals were not directly part of Evo’s redesign. They were found by the VP of marketing for AFCU. My favorite (third in next series) was the gorilla in the main space holding up a bright, pink stick mask.

My last project of 2019 with EVO was AFCU’s newest branch located in Hot Springs. This new construction location boasted a very non-bank look.

Tons of natural light, neutral tones and a bright and airy common space flowed into the teller counters that weren’t your typical bank vibe. 

Several offices were off to the left and featured a farmhouse glass doors on a metal tract and with privacy diffusion panels
