This international organization, the world's largest nonprofit, knows the importance of making a good first impression. The project's architects did a wonderful job of creating a design that lifts the eye six stories. When you walk on this stair you have a sense of floating. The 2,000 feet of rail we crafted adds to the subtle minimalism that practically disappears. Take a look at the "before" photo we shot during construction. Gorgeous, don't you agree?
