This interior design at the Lincoln Square lobby blends stunningly the modern elegance with sumptuous comfort. Plush chairs are matched with rich, deep pile carpets that create a warm welcome in the atmosphere. Warm marble, subtle lighting, and a few more elements further add to the ambience, making the lobby both inviting and picturesque. The design has coordinated various elements to blend cohesively, as it brings harmony to the environment that heralds the visionary architectural mind of Patricia Urquiola. From the choice of materials down to furnishing, it nearly speaks of a 'commitment to quality and style'.
Custom chandeliers made of Banker Wire’s M22-83 in mixed Stainless Steel and Bronze dominate the high ceilings. The warmth of the stainless steel and bronze woven wire mesh blends well with the other luxurious elements in the lobby. Plush chairs and carpets, with warm marble and lighting play well off the unique curvature of M22-83. Woven wire mesh used as part of a chandelier makes an exceptional visual statement. Light can dance and reflect off the metallic surface of the lighting fixture and unique geometry of each wire adding subtle sparkle to the room.
Lincoln Square is a new ten-story residential building in London, located within walking distance of many historical buildings and some of London’s oldest educational institutions. The overall building is intended to be modern, yet blend in with the historical nature of the area. On the interior, the goal was to create a variety of unique spaces that were unified by subtle elements and themes, like woven wire mesh.
These chandeliers really dominated the high ceilings of this unique and captivating element in the space. The wire mesh gives an industrial feel to modern times but also interacts with light, dancing upon and reflecting off its metallic surface to illuminate the ambiance of the room in subtleness. This new use for wire mesh within ceiling design really goes to show how basic, functional materials can become beautiful decorative elements.
