Gage & Rilella Project
Completed April 2009
Sylvia Gage and Lorraine Rinella of Gage and Rinella and I have worked together for years on some very interesting projects. This office reception space originally was scheduled to have vertical stripes. However, once I looked at the space it seemed more to want a horizontal treatment. The wall was a beautiful curve behind the reception desk. This is the left section of the wall - imagine that wall continuing the curve to the right.
I won't bore you with the mathematical calculations, but I did divide the sections based on the surrounding architectural elements. One of the elements I mimicked was the chair rail which is the first light grey stripe above the darker grey. You can get a peek of the actual chair rail on the left in the picture below.
