Third Avenue Showroom
Public/Institutional/Educational
The design of this showroom for a diverse selection of Kohler bath products in a small space is about creating order through a simple grid with the textures of changing materials.
While carpeting provides the essential acoustical layer for public circulation, slate sales areas withstand the daily intense use by the sales personnel and customers. The challenge of the existing envelope lacking exterior exposure with a low ceiling, prompted a solution of horizontal beams of light to create a new perception of the space.
