Aztec designs begin to add up for accounting firm.The Aztec Corporation has designed WithumSmith+Brown's 25,000 s/f Morristown office located at 465 South Street. Aztec has designed a total of four offices for the accounting firm within the past year. The project was lead by Aztec's principal, David Fournier, and director, Amany Girgis. The design includes black polished granite floors and a matching granite reception counter, a raised ceiling bordered by dropped soffits and down lights accented with mahogany mahogany, common name for the Meliaceae, a widely distributed family of chiefly tropical shrubs and trees, often having scented wood. The valuable hardwood called mahogany is obtained from many members of the family; in America and Europe it is imported for crown molding Crown molding encapsulates a large family of moldings which are designed to gracefully flare out to a finished top edge; generally used for capping walls, pilasters, cabinets; used extensively in the creation of interior and exterior cornice assemblies and door and window hoods. and elegant alabaster alabaster, fine-grained, massive, translucent variety of gypsum, a hydrous calcium sulfate. It is pure white or streaked with reddish brown. Alabaster, like all other forms of gypsum, forms by the evaporation of bedded deposits that are precipitated mainly from pendant light A pendant light, sometimes called a drop or suspender, is a lone light fixture that hangs from the ceiling usually suspended by a cord, chain, or metal rod. Pendant lights are often used in multiples, hung in a straight line over kitchen countertops and dinette sets or sometimes in fixtures to provide an inviting atmosphere. Additionally, the layering of patterns, colors and textures in the furniture, wall covering and carpets further add a sense of warmth throughout the space. The combination of these elements reinforces the firms' corporate identity and is carried throughout all of WithumSmith+Brown's new offices. Among the Aztec projects designed for WithumSmith+Brown are the firm's 28,000 s/f headquarters located at Five Vaughn Road in Princeton, NJ. For this initial location, Aztec's design incorporated existing architectural elements including marble flooring, glass built upon these items with additional detailing, materials and colors, and furnishings furnishings the extra type or quantity of hair on the head, tail, ears or legs, specified for a particular breed. For example, the feathers in setters, the beard in Bearded collies, the eyebrows in Schnauzers. to maintain the firms' corporate identity. The new design concept has been incorporated into WithumSmith+Brown's 25,000 s/f Red Bank office located at 331 Newman Springs Road, as well as the design of the 12,000 s/f Branchburg office located at 3040 Route 22 West, completed December 2005. "We are pleased to continue our long relationship with WithumSmith+Brown," said Fournier. "We have enjoyed the opportunity to create an overall corporate identity for one of New Jersey's leading accounting firms and look forward to incorporating this design into the firm's future office expansions throughout the tri-state area There are a number of places in the United States known as tri-state areas where three states or holdings meet at one point (a tripoint), or in proximity to each other. The two most well-known are for the New York and Chicago metropolitan areas. ." |
