The Feature Wall

The crews have framed one of the more prominent pieces in the new office design – what we call The Feature Wall.  It’s a 30 foot long wall that acts as an organizing element, reaching from the front door past reception and into our central forum area.  The wall (unfinished in this photo) will be clad in 1x15 boards that we think are, well, special.  The boards will be sawn from a supply of huge 3x15 beams that now hold up a portion of the old building’s upper floor.  We’re removing some of those beams to make an open section in the upper floor, and this is one of the ways we’re planning to reuse them.  They should be real nice to look at, as they were cut from old growth Douglas Fir back in the 40’s.  The recessed slot in the feature wall will hold a graphic timeline of important events in the firm’s nearly 24-year history.
