Design Solutions - Spring 2022 - 44

Renovations were
designed by NORR Architects
of Chicago and Interface
Planning and Design Inc. of
Antioch, Illinois. Architectural
woodwork for the project was
fabricated and installed by
Bernhard Woodwork Ltd., an
AWI member firm located in
Northbrook, Illinois.
The entire area of work for
the project is approximately
55,000 square feet, while
the interior renovation that
was recently completed
is approximately 11,000
square feet. The total cost
for the entire project once
fully completed in late 2022
will be around $10 million.
The project will have taken
approximately six years
total to complete from its
inception.
Design Considerations
There were a few primary
design objectives that were
maintained throughout the
entire project, notes Chris
Kleehammer, NORR project
architect. " Our goal was to
create a warm and welcoming
space, that would look and
feel just as good in 25 years.
The primary design objective
for the corridor ceiling was to
take advantage of the high
floor to floor heights while
working around the necessary
infrastructure such as
structural members, ductwork,
plumbing pipes, electrical
conduits, and sprinkler pipes.
We wanted to have dramatic
ceilings but not be limited by
the infrastructures' heights. We
soon realized we could use the
various heights needed for the
infrastructure above the ceiling
to our advantage. "

Kleehammer. " When the lake
is calm, the waves gently roll
in, and you can't help but feel
at ease looking at them. We
wanted to try and replicate
this feeling for all those
entering the space. We also
wanted to take advantage
of the existing floor to floor
heights, which were very tall. "
Various " waves " were used
Inspiration was derived
from the name of the
property, Lake Vista, as well
as Lake Michigan, which
is only a few blocks away
from the property, says
to wash over and conceal the
infrastructure. The waves rise
or fall to avoid crashing into
a duct or pipe. " This allowed
us to create a dramatic ceiling
and not be limited in height
due to the infrastructure.
It was important to us that
the series of waves were
continuous and that there
weren't gaps in between
them. This allows the series of
waves to read as one element,
like a body of water. "
