Well-versed in alternative and experimental processes, we transformed dimensional stone into the distinctive pleated wall panels specified by the architect. The project required navigating tight tolerances and producing seamless finishes to unify the part-Calacatta marble, part-anodized aluminium panels.
Compounding the complexity of the project, the lobby was kept active during the course of construction, which required creativity in staging and installation methods within the limited space.
