PHILIPPE
STARCK .DESIGNER HAIGH SPACE .ARCHITECTS
The
Paramount Hotel Lobby was designed by the acclaimed Philippe Starck. Paul Haigh
of Haigh Architects provided the drawings and architectural expertise required
for its construction. Scott Weinkle, project architect for Haigh Architects produced
details and drawings and supervised aspects of its construction. Mr. Weinkle used
his experience in detailing and design to help create the Lobby's reductive volumes,
stair structure and minimalist lines. Haigh
Architects also renovated the first two floors of the facade, creating a transparent
lower level that houses Dean and DeLuca, the Whiskey Bar and LeMadre. The upper
level of the facade was also renovated using fiberglass panels to recreate the
buildings turn of the century facade. |
