About the Project
The City is installing 70+ new shared micromobility corrals around downtown Raleigh to support a network of dockless e-scooters and e-bikes. Standard corral size is roughly 20 feet long and 8 feet wide, but can vary based on assigned location. Artists will be provided with a fast-drying, waterborne epoxy-modified acrylic coating. This is a professional-grade pavement coating designed for long-lasting outdoor use. To create a cohesive look across the projects, artists will work within a 10-color palette determined by the City.
Artists are encouraged to create designs that are simple and easy to paint quickly. Consider how artwork may wear over time. Art should be bold so it’s visible to drivers and pedestrians, encourages residents to use the corrals, and brightens the urban streetscape. Artists will be required to engage with local businesses adjacent to the project zones and share two to three thematic concepts before final design.
