The thoroughfare’s partially exposed ductwork ceiling supports its neighboring, hard ceiling and the far right, suspended angled wood-ribbed ceiling – a continuation from the lobby.

The custom, acrylic lights sit within an architecturally relevant golden ratio frame and add drama and depth to the exposed ceiling.
