Welcoming Walnut
Renovation of the lobby
and lobby bar areas included
check-in desks and a large
feature wall behind the desks
in addition to an overall lobby
remodel and relocation to a
more central location to lighten
up the space and make it more
modern, says Rothman. The
lobby bar was also remodeled
in order to have a continuous
flow given that these two
spaces are contiguous.
Plain sliced Walnut was
the primary wood veneer
used on the new lobby
space. " Due to the height
of the back wall and the
detailing by the interior
design team, Montbleau
had to manage closely the
blueprint and sequence
matching of all the vertical
elements, " Rothman
adds. " There was also the
requirement to align with all
the other stone and vertical
to anchor the spaces, while
bleached Walnut was used to
help punctuate dimensional
wood lighting elements.
" Balancing a variety of
WALNUT
elements of this elevation.
Vents were also integrated
into the elevation. "
American Walnut, in
two distinct finishes, was
utilized to lend a luxurious,
yet authentic and warm
familiarity to the spaces
without interrupting grand
and impressive design
gestures, says Dalton.
Darker finishes were utilized
in the bar and behind the
monumental reception pods
textures, forms and media
added variety to the renovated
spaces, which was crucial to
the success of the design, "
adds Dalton. " Woodwork that
integrated mirror, fabric panels
and specialty artwork was
strategically installed to focus
attention on key elements of
the lobby and bar, and to help
minimize the perceived height
of the room. These treatments
brought a more human
scale to each space, without
diminishing the impressive
architecture. Lighting was
equally important, and the
design sought to distribute
illumination across various
planes, and features
concentrating visual appeal,
allure, and vibrancy to the
overall feel of the spaces. "
Our experienced craftsmen
utilize modern construction
techniques and up to the last minute
scheduling software to create
high quality products that are
manufactured efficiently.
