The Capitol Place renovation focused on modernizing and elevating the common areas to create a luxurious and welcoming environment for residents and guests. The redesign addressed concerns of visibility and safety while embracing the soul of the space by incorporating timeless design elements, sustainable materials, and natural textures. The result is a cohesive aesthetic that seamlessly integrates modern sophistication with a sense of comfort and flexibility.
“We aimed to create spaces that are not only functional but also elevate the overall user experience,” said Jen Toba-Davila, Director of Interior Architecture. “The use of layered textures and natural elements was integral to ensuring a sense of warmth and approachability.”
