“The design goal is to give warmth and life to the public lobby areas of a residential community located on the water, overlooking the Manhattan skyline,” said Pamela Nelson, a painter and public artist from Dallas, TX. “I designed the floor and walls as a gathering bundle of people and destinations, sort of looking from above, as an architectural plan.”
Varying shades of slate, supplied by MS International Inc. of Orange, CA, form overlapping wavy lines on the floor and wall in a section of the lobby. The vivid colors and unique design instantly become a point of interest upon entering the space. The textured feel of the slate further brings dimension to the design.
