Client: Millwork Contractor
Location: Turtle Creek, Dallas, TX
Industry: Commercial Real Estate & Interior Design
Challenge:
The design of a high-end private office building in the prestigious Turtle Creek area of Dallas, TX, called for a sophisticated and cohesive aesthetic that would complement the luxurious surroundings. The client wanted to incorporate a variety of decorative metals throughout the building, emphasizing elegance and quality craftsmanship.
Astro Sheet Metal’s challenge was to create custom metal solutions that would enhance the office’s interiors while adhering to the architect’s vision. This included fabricating blackened and brushed stainless steel elements for various design features, such as reception desks, elevator lobbies, doors, and conference rooms.
Astro was responsible for ensuring that each decorative metal element was visually appealing and meticulously crafted to fit seamlessly into the building’s design and functional requirements.
Solution:
Astro’s approach was to blend high-quality materials with expert craftsmanship to achieve the striking visual impact the design called for. Our solution involved fabricating and installing various decorative metal elements, including blackened steel and brushed stainless steel, each carefully tailored to the project’s specific needs.
Key design elements included:
- Blackened Steel Reception Desks: The reception area featured stunning blackened steel accents that complemented the building’s wood accents, creating a sophisticated contrast and a welcoming atmosphere for visitors.
- Brushed Stainless Steel Elevator Lobbies: Astro fabricated elevator jambs, headers, transom panels, call button panels, and bases from high-quality brushed stainless steel. These elements enhanced the elegance of the elevator lobbies and provided a polished, modern look.
- Blackened Steel Accents Throughout: Blackened steel was used in various locations throughout the building, including the portals in corridors and decorative panels in the conference room. These accents added a dramatic flair, creating a cohesive and striking visual flow throughout the space.
- Custom Metalwork for Conference Room Doors & Panels: The doors and decorative panels for the conference room were made from blackened steel, creating a bold yet refined design element that contributed to the overall luxurious feel of the office.
Process:
- Design Collaboration & Planning:
Astro worked closely with the project’s architects and interior designers to ensure the metal elements would enhance the building’s aesthetic. Detailed CAD drawings were created for each metal component, allowing for precise fabrication and seamless integration into the interior design. - Material Selection & Fabrication:
Astro selected the highest quality blackened steel and brushed stainless steel following the design specifications. The materials were crafted with precision to meet the necessary dimensions and finish. Each piece was custom-made to fit seamlessly into the building’s layout and align with the overall design vision. - Precision Craftsmanship:
Astro’s skilled team used advanced techniques to achieve the perfect finish for each metal element. The blackened steel was treated to create a rich, darkened surface, while the brushed stainless steel was polished to a sleek and modern finish. Attention to detail was paramount to ensure each element met the exact specifications. - Installation:
The decorative metal components were delivered to the site in secure packaging. Astro’s installation team collaborated closely with the project’s general contractor to ensure the metal elements were installed on schedule and precisely. From reception desks to elevator lobbies and conference rooms, each piece was meticulously positioned to create a seamless flow throughout the building.
