Designed to resemble a lighthouse on the Texas Gulf Coast, the 115,000 SF office space features curved "wave walls," light fixtures that resembled the beacon on a light house, boardwalk corridors, a terrazzo floor patterned to look like the coast of Texas and ceilings in the elevator lobbies that utilized fiber optics to recreate the starlit night sky. The lunch room featured stainless steel table tops along the perimeter, custom banquette seating, and hanging graphics to provide the illusion of a tropical underwater scene. Stairwells featured handrail systems that looked like those found on a ship. Portholes and ship lighting features continued the nautical theme.
