This elegant corporate office space is home to a large architectural firm. The building was remodeled with 5,400 square feet of epoxy terrazzo in four subdued, rich colors. Mother-of-pearl and silver-coated mirror aggregate reflect the abundant natural light from the five-story window wall, reinforcing the airiness of the atrium. This sophisticated yet simple design with its concentric and intersecting circles create integrated wayfinding to key areas of the building.
