- About Project
- Designed by the late Zaha Hadid, world renowned architect, the 520 West 28th Street is an ultra-luxurious residential building that includes 39 private residences as well as several luxury state-of-the-art amenities. The rounded glass windows with steel bands look out onto New York City’s famous High Line park. These dynamic curves create a distinctive chevron pattern that embraces interlacing levels, maximizing privacy and security between residences.
- Project Brief
- The initial phase of the project started with sourcing marble blocks in Greece, where we ensured that the materials had just the right color variations for this monochromatic design. We then worked closely with the architects to refine the layouts to allow for an exact installation process. Next, the stone was shipped from Greece to Italy for a highly detailed fabrication process before arriving in New York City ready to be installed like a giant 3D puzzle.
Recipient of the 2017 Grande Pinnacle Award of Excellence
Along with installing beautiful stone work in 520 West 28th Street luxury apartments, our mandate was to engineer and execute an artistic feature stone wall in the lobby area. Artfully carved from smokey gray Grigio Brasile marble, the wall creates a breathtaking piece of art that expands 34 feet across the lobby.
Not only is the stone installation in the lobby aesthetically pleasing for residents and guests, but it is the recipient of the 2017 Grande Pinnacle Award of Excellence. The Pinnacle Awards competition brings together natural stone professional from all over the world. The Grande Pinnacle Award of Excellence is one of the most prestigious awards in our industry, and is given to projects whose beauty, creativity, ingenuity and craftsmanship exemplify mastery in the use of natural stone.
