Inside the new lobby, a backlit feature wall and light material palette provide a modern and inviting experience. A new reception desk, wood pall paneling, and glowing ceiling complete the more elegant atmosphere. An element of surprise, the entire panel above each elevator acts as a call lantern through clever backlighting.
