The high ceilings of the downtown office penthouse create dramatic volumes and technical challenges. Hunter Moody Architects and IBI Group Interior Designers teamed to deliver the Houston office for the investment bankers. The two independent operating units flank the shared reception and client areas. Natural light passes through the 15' stainless steel and glass wall that separates the conference and reception, with the lower portion of electric privacy glass. Deep dark wood and rich leather wall panels contrast the light travertine floor and furnishings.
