Narrative
The floor reads in one sweep from the elevator lobby, so the public-facing surfaces were carried to a Level 5 standard — reception wall behind the backlit signage, wood-panel returns, and the pantry field all cut clean to trim and ceiling.
Exposed deck and conduit over the lounge were sprayed dryfall, then the navy soffit was finished as a hard-edged volume: every return, reveal, and can-light cut had to hold straight against the raw deck above it.
Vinyl wallcovering was hung at the boardroom feature wall over a skimmed and sized substrate, with seams laid out to the mural artwork rather than to the wall centerline.
Work ran in an occupied tower on freight-elevator windows and off-hours spray. Corridors, elevator lobbies, and finished flooring were protected and cleared before every business day.
