Meeting center
Article Abstract:
New York City's IDT Assoc. was chosen to renovate the 17th floor of the Lever House, which is the headquarters of Lever Brothers Co. Its task was to redesign the 6,000-sq.-ft. space into an in-house conference facility and an independent suite of offices for the chief executive and the senior vice president. The renovation team took its inspiration from the famous Lever House architecture. The gray-colored wall system and its horizontal glass panels reflect the exterior of the building while the curve of the team center walls supplement the rectilinearity of the building.
