This high-end repositioning project checked about every box for complexity, from installing a new structural mezzanine and stair to a fabric-like, flexible, Woodskin wood paneling system that weaves from the exterior of the building, through the elevator lobby, and up to the fitness center. The innovative Woodskin millwork was only the second of its kind to be installed in North America. The project team found that the plumbing and mechanical center of the building and structural ramp were in the way of the perfect ribbon-like connection, so they were completely relocated while the building was fully occupied. The exterior lobby facade was relocated and rebuilt as a three-sided glass box, with structural steel, Woodskin, curtainwall, aluminum panels, and custom-sized pavers, which all had to be ordered based on a closely coordinated 4D virtual and physical layout.
