Project 2 of 6 Back Forth

Warehouse Conversion

The Strategy: Cost effectively convert this former warehouse space into a reception area by utilizing the existing structural materials as finished surfaces.

AxD installed new perimeter lighting to highlight the rich colors and textures of exposed brick walls and wood beams. We designed a new wooden panel “floating cloud” to conceal perimeter mechanical, electrical and audio systems while enhancing the intimacy of the reception space.
