NIXON PEABODY

Washington, DC

General Contractor: Davis Construction
Architect: Perkins+Will

The Nixon Peabody project with Davis Construction was one for the books. The design, by Perkins + Will, was a departure from the traditional law firm work style. The design intent was to incorporate a more collaborative space which translated into more open, accessible space. The millwork installation for Nixon Peabody required elaborate coordination and meticulous labor to deliver an exceptional product to satisfy the high standards set by the design team. From day one, our craftsmen worked as in tandem with the design team and client to ensure the proper aesthetic, while also providing the correct solutions to maintain functionality and longevity for each product. Numerous iterations of wood wall paneling mock-ups were presented to the client to give the project team a high level of comfort with the final finish that would make a lasting impression when entering the law firm. The crown jewel of the law firm was the interconnecting staircase; bringing nature indoors was an understatement. The staircase brings light and airy to a whole new level. Throughout the project, Gaithersburg Architectural Millwork coordinated with multiple trades, drywall, steel, glass, and more, to deliver a finish even more exceptional than the lofty goals set by the design. Our participation in this amazing project earned us a WBC Craftmanship Award for Architectural Millwork.
