Calder developed the design, size and scale of "Four Arches" by working with architectural drawings and a model of the site. He then built a maquette of the work. Fabricated out of carbon plate steel, "4 Arches" was installed during the construction of the surrounding plaza. The sculpture was aligned by Peter Walker, the landscape architect, and painted "Calder" red, which is actually an orange-red. Creating a striking contrast against the muted colors Albert C. Martin and Associates incorporated into their design of the adjacent 52-story office tower, the sculpture has a high profile on Bunker Hill, serving as a distinctive landmark, and as a frame for the surrounding buildings.
