Our trusted client Whiting Turner called us with an immediate need to procure a rather ornate exterior granite cladding system and vast amounts of interior patterned marble flooring. The challenge of this project was that our work needed to be completed within a six months timeframe.
We sourced the exterior granite from our trusted partner in Italy. It required a rather sophisticated design calling for an Arabic geometric pattern that needed to be routed into the face of granite. Special tooling was used in the main entry door portal and the site security granite fence posts and walls.
The interior design called for multiple types of colored marble fabricated into ornate Arabic carpets. This entire project was delivered on time and budget with the assistance of air freight cargo.
