When Terry Tampa, architectural representative for Daltile was approached by designer Joemy Vega of the Hard Rock International, the two were keenly aware that the renovation of the Delta Skybox 360 at Yankee Stadium was going to be fast paced. This was due to the fact that the VIP suite had to be finished for opening day at Yankee Stadium, April 15, 2012 -- only a few months from the start of the project.
"The Yankees came to us and said that they wanted to renovate the space," explained Vega. "We started the design in December, and it opened in April. Everything is custom designed. I was always very involved -- finding materials with lead times that would meet our deadline. It was a combination of a great architecture firm, Environetics [the New York-based architecture firm], Plaza Contractors and the Yankees trusting our vision. [Also], Daltile was amazing to work with."
