The Renovated Gateway Building
TwispWorks is sprucing up the south end of downtown Twisp with new landscaping, solar panels and building updates. The new facade on the building facing Highway 20 was designed by facilities assistant Patrick Hannigan. It incorporates regular, cold-rolled steel that has been treated with salt to give it an antique, rusted look. The multi-functional design presents a space where future tenants or resident artists can display their work. Additionally, it allows for a view from the Highway into the TwispWorks campus.
