The Schimberg Group understands that collaboration is fundamental towards achieving best practices, sustainable success and Extraordinary Results. President's Corner:
You Never Get a Second Chance to Make a Good First Impression
“The lobby space type includes foyers, entries to halls, and security screening areas at or near the entrance to a building or demarcated space, and are meant to welcome and direct tenants and visitors, control access, and provide exit ways from buildings. This space type is often designed with both secure and non-secure areas. Building lobbies often serve as the "public face" of building interiors. The character and function of a lobby space often influence a visitor's first impression upon entering a building. Key design concerns for this space type include balancing aesthetics, security, and operational considerations. “
-Cecily Channel, National Institute of Building Science Whole Building Design Guide
Whether a lobby for a grand hotel or a small office complex, the entry space sets the tone for how a patron or employee experiences the building. It should incorporate a unique element like a signage wall, reception desk, or fountain. Lighting is important to create ambience and give flexibility to light the space during different parts of the day. Material selections should be sustainable to withstand traffic and also create an aesthetic interest to keep people coming back. A well designed lobby adds value to both the owner of the building and the tenants within it.
