The varying shades of neutral-tone finishes enhance the offset geometry in this Alexandria, Virginia office. The reception area features bulky shapes in the foreground providing visitors with just a glimpse of the background arcade. The main corridor, which separates 2 rows of workstations, is accentuated by a linear series of massive portals which give sequence and repetition to the circulation spine. The client's specialized needs for their workstations were addressed by a customized millwork package.
