Harbinger Times

Buffalo, NY, is currently experiencing a design and artistry revolution, thanks to Zachary Pascarella and his pioneering company, Wise Owl Concepts. With projects already exceeding $1.2 million and expected to double, Pascarella is not just transforming physical spaces; he’s redefining the fusion of functionality and art, making a significant impact on D’Youville University’s campus and beyond.

A standout project that epitomizes Pascarella’s innovative spirit is the Container Park at D’Youville University. This project showcases his commitment to sustainable, creative reuse by repurposing a shipping container into a dynamic, multifunctional space. It features a rooftop deck and a custom helix staircase, making it a beacon of modern urban design that promotes community, collaboration, and celebration. More details on this transformative project can be found at D’Youville University’s website, www.dyc.edu.

Another significant endeavor is the Vital Pharmacy project, where Pascarella’s talent for merging natural materials with contemporary design shines. By sourcing wood directly from Costa Rica, he has not only created a pharmacy but a sanctuary of wellness, enveloped in warmth and precision of bespoke design. This project demanded an in-depth understanding of materials, an eye for aesthetics, and a commitment to creating spaces that inspire and heal.

Pascarella’s work extends beyond communal spaces. Projects like the Minerva Room and Think Differently are testaments to his ability to craft environments that foster innovation and dialogue. His designs, which include custom conference room furniture and art that challenges conventional thinking, enhance the user experience by proving that form and function can coexist harmoniously.

The Esports Gaming Lounge and the Cultural Enrichment Center are vibrant examples of Pascarella’s dedication to creating inclusive and engaging spaces. The ‘Harmony in Diversity’ art installation, with its multitude of hand-painted, crinkled aluminum faces, is a powerful statement on diversity and community, reflecting both D’Youville’s values and Pascarella’s personal ethos.

Not limiting his influence to communal areas, Pascarella has also left his mark on the Athletic Building with the ‘Saint Mosaic.’ This large wall installation combines over 1,200 wooden blocks to form a breathtaking mosaic centered around the Saint Bernard dog head, emblematic of D’Youville’s sports teams.

Looking to the future, Pascarella has ambitious plans for a large-scale campus sculpture, a bell tower with Cinderella-style staircases, and a significant art installation for the medical building. These projects underscore his creative genius and logistical prowess, further solidifying his reputation as a visionary artist and builder.

Zachary Pascarella’s contributions to D’Youville University serve as a masterclass in how art and design can elevate spaces into experiential realms. His ability to oversee complex projects, collaborate with diverse teams, and push the boundaries of traditional design is setting new industry standards.
