Niagara, NY Carmina Wood Morris DPC (CWM) recently completed the interior design and engineering work on a $7 million improvement project for the Fichte Endl & Elmer Eyecare facilities. The new office allowed Fichte Endl & Elmer four new exam rooms (totaling 15), testing rooms, and a conference center. The 21,000 s/f building is now wheelchair accessible with an updated lobby featuring an atrium and modernized optical boutique.

The facility’s interior work features high ceilings and access to natural light. As an eye care facility their focus is on what one sees, so great lengths were taken to make sure there is variety and beauty in the space. Many of the finish selections play off of an ocular theme, from eye shaped glass tile at the fireplace to the wallpaper, fabric patterns and even the orb shape light fixtures. The reception desk is an inviting space with intricate wall coverings that pair with the tile on the main wall. Planters were added to give the space life.

The firm was praised by Kathy Otto, coordinator of marketing and outreach at Fichte Endl & Elmer, saying, “Thank you for all your hard on interior design you have done for us. Our building is aesthetically amazing because of you and your team! You have been a pleasure to work with and we cannot imagine taking this on without the help of such highly regarded professionals as yourselves!”

Carmina Wood Morris has developed a reputation for their design and technical skills. The principals of CWM are Steven Carmina, AIA;  Christopher Wood, PE; Jonathan Morris, AIA; Pamela Timby-Straitiff, CID IIDA; and Michael Bray, AIA. They credit the success of their firm to the attention to detail, aesthetics, and service given to each project and client. They are a dynamic team collaborating to achieve innovative solutions, grounded in core values, respected in their profession and community.
