It's All Starting to Come Together

We decided to separate these blog posts so as not to have to cram so much information into the same post. This post includes several exterior perspectives from sketchup that show some preliminary exterior materials, as well as the incorporation of windows into the shell of the building. Additionally, the interior designers have designed several custom pieces for the interior, including the greeter desk, the deli/smoothie bar, and the canteen. They will also be designing and modeling a sculpture for the Lobby/Atrium. Look for that to be added soon.

Instead of placing pre-fab pieces in for all of the furniture, we decided to design custom pieces for several areas that could follow with our overall design philosophy of the building. Because "blocks" are our overarching theme, we wanted to keep that shape fairly consistent. However, we don't want all the pieces to look exactly the same or to be too literal in their interpretation of the theme.

CANTEEN: This area is located in the lobby/atrium as a food service area.

Deli/Smoothie Bar: This area is located in the wellness center and is intended as a place to pick up a healthy snack or meal before or after a workout. It is also adjacent to the auditorium and serves as a snack bar for that area.

Greeter Desk: This is the first sight upon entering the building. It features a desk for a receptionist. The wall also has signage with the name of the medical complex. This wall is built completely of cork, and the back side of it serves as a community memo board.
