Boston, MA

Graphic geometric panels of African mahogany mix with stainless steel to create a stunning effect and majestic welcome to this 120,000 square foot office building. Reflective black floor tiles increase the ambient light, while dark gray carpeting and upholstery soften the materials. Tenants have cited the new lobby as an incentive for renewing their leases, confirming the power of good design. The fact that this major renovation was completed in ten weeks while maintaining full access to the building is a testament to Flavin Architects' strength as project coordinators.
