DESCRIPTION
This project comprised of the re-design of the street front retail and office lobby façade as well as the interior corporate lobby. The façade design was developed so that the two separate uses complemented one another in a way that provided a strong presence for the retailer while integrating an elegant yet visible identity for the corporate lobby entrance. On the interior, a simple and elegant design treatment was conceived to create an inviting and bright environment. Porcelain marble slabs were introduced onto the walls and refined stainless steel detail accents were incorporated. New warm yet crisp lighting was introduced to create a fresh and clean ambiance. Our team worked with existing tenants to upgrade their spaces to better integrate into this new environment. New amenities such as simple benches and a digital screen providing tenants and guests with information about the building was designed onto the feature wall upon entry to the lobby.
