Renovation of Transitional Spaces

Successful updates to the space would require finding a balance between the design of the corridor itself and the various design aesthetics of the rooms to which it lead. Included among the other challenges was integrating HVAC supply vents in a decorative manner and solving the need for subtle-but-effective way-finding signage. Additionally, in balancing the venue's classical style, refined materials and elegant finishes were needed. Furthering the complications was a need to employ materials that would withstand moisture and temperature changes of this below-grade area.
