Integrating Local Art into Madison Apartments Enhances Community Living Experience

At Stone House Development, we believe that apartments for rent in Madison, WI should offer more than just a place to live—they should reflect the vibrant culture and history of our city. That's why we've collaborated with local artists to bring unique artistic experiences to our residents.


One such collaboration is with Kevin Kiley, a Madison-based landscape artist renowned for his evocative depictions of the city's East Side. His work captures the essence of Madison's industrial past, blending aging architecture with natural elements to create pieces that are both nostalgic and hauntingly beautiful. Four of Kiley's paintings now grace the lobby of Starkweather Place, offering residents and visitors a daily glimpse into the city's storied past.

Another notable collaboration is with Evan Bradbury, an independent artist and owner of Carnelian Art Gallery. Bradbury's abstract acrylic paintings adorn the walls of The Urbane, a new apartment complex located at 2725 Marshall Court in the Village of Shorewood Hills.His pieces, characterized by textured white and blue designs, complement the Scandinavian contemporary vibe of the complex.The presence of Bradbury's artwork throughout the common areas adds an element of quality, creativity, and intrigue that enhances the living experience for residents.

These collaborations underscore our commitment to supporting local artists and integrating art into everyday living spaces. By incorporating local art into our apartment communities, we aim to create environments that resonate with the city's heritage and foster a sense of belonging.
