also spent countless hours
preparing shop drawings
working closely with the
architects ensuring the
design was buildable with
specified materials and
design intent. "
The fluted columns in the
main lobby are noteworthy for
their complexity due to their
size and shape, says Jimison.
" Multiple 13' tall segments are
glued together, then installed
as four quarter-circle sections
around the structural column.
Once completely installed, the
alignment of the rift-cut veneer
wood grain conceals the
joints, resulting in a monolithic
appearance. The woodwork
in the mailroom integrates
metalwork, stonework,
lighting, and standard mailbox
product, resulting in highlydetailed pieces that appear
as custom furniture. "

Super Team
" We worked with
Gaithersburg Architectural
Millwork throughout the
submittal process to select
the wood species, determine
acceptable flitch and stain
range, and achieve approved
shop drawings that matched
our design intent, " recalls
Jimison. " The process of
matching samples to our
control sample went through
several rounds to achieve a
final range of samples that
met budgetary and design
constraints. Once installation
began, we met on-site to
review progress and resolve
issues arising from site
conditions. "

" A designer/architect has
the initial vision with the
owner, " says Parker. " To ensure
that vision is carried throughout
a project it is imperative that
we communicate often and
make suggestions as to how
we can streamline the process
as well as add creative and
structural elements. "
