Project Description
After demolition, a 16,000 square foot conference center was added to the Newport Beach location of this insurance firm. The reception area is complete with stone finishes, comfortable seating, and custom islands. A bespoke indoor planter houses two 9-foot artificial trees. Extending from the reception area, an expansive curved corridor with glass walls and a custom Madrid wood ceiling leads guests to an array of smaller conference rooms. The corridor also includes custom wall graphics and a multidimensional wood interpretation of the company’s branding. All conference rooms include state-of-the-art A/V, high resolution projectors, stage lighting, and HVAC controls. An additional oversized multi-purpose meeting room is complete with automatic Skyfold partitions.
