Bakke Recreation & Wellbeing Center

Building Relationships Through Proven Process And Results

Thysse Map Marker
As part of Thysse's continued partnership with University of Wisconsin - Madison's Recreation & Wellbeing team, Thysse was brought on early in the construction planning phases to develop a comprehensive facility branding plan for the new Bakke Recreation Center on campus. Incorporating the building's surrounding natural features, this collaboration produced an elevated brand approach that melds seamlessly with the organic, architectural features of the building. The result is an inclusive experience that connects students to the land around them—a true celebration of nature and wellness.

Passion, Pride & Craftsmanship

Here's what we all designed, fabricated and intalled:

I want everbody to be happy. That's what it's all about. Just think about these things in your mind - then bring them into your world. Maybe there was an old trapper that lived out here and maybe one day he went to check his beaver traps, and maybe he fell into the river and drowned.
