Paulson & Co. West Palm Beach — Venetian Plaster Reception & Conference Area

The Marmorine finished the reception and conference area of Paulson & Co.’s office at One Flagler, Related’s commercial tower in West Palm Beach, in Venetian plaster, in collaboration with Gridline Interiors LLC and JRM Construction Management. JRM built out the 4,400-square-foot suite for the investment management firm, with an open office, a conference room, a break room and an executive suite.

The reception is the first room visitors see. Pale stone floors, a white reception desk, a lit ceiling cove and glass walls into the conference room keep the palette spare, so the plaster wall gives the space its texture and depth.

Venetian plaster is built up in thin layers of lime and marble and compacted by hand, so it reflects light with depth rather than the flat sheen of paint. Under the perimeter cove lighting, the wall reads as a soft, slightly clouded surface instead of a bright white plane.

Kept close to white and fine in texture, the finish sits comfortably with the glass, stone and lacquered surfaces around it. It feels considered without competing with the art or the views from the conference room.

Office build-outs in a Class A tower run on tight schedules, with building rules for access, deliveries and working hours. We sequence plaster with the general contractor and the other trades, protect the stone floors, glass and millwork, and hold a consistent finish across every wall in the scope.
