Mancini*Duffy has completed the transformation of Normandy Real Estate Partners' 35-story, 749,040 s/f office tower, 575 Lexington Ave. The firm's design created an inviting lobby, new storefront, grand entrance, elevator cabs, and a high-definition media wall. This was Mancini*Duffy's first collaboration with Normandy. Presently, the firm is working on the renovation of another building in the developer's portfolio, 125 W. 25th St. "Mancini*Duffy is proud to once again work with Normandy Real Estate Partners on its asset at 575 Lexington Ave.," said Christian Giordano, president of Mancini*Duffy. "We're passionate about creating inviting and functional spaces that have a unique aesthetic, which also provides our clients with the tools necessary to attract top-quality tenants and be competitive in today's market." Mancini*Duffy's updated design features a two-story entryway, whose exterior canopy extends inward and acts as a ceiling for the interior lobby, creating a continuous connection between the indoor/outdoor spaces of the building. The bright, new entryway opens up the exterior of the ground-floor retail space, while paying homage to the dark glass façade above. Inside, the lobby is accentuated by a high-definition media wall which displays natural landscapes and programs geared towards clients and special occasions. Interior and exterior finishes and materials used by Mancini*Duffy at 575 Lexington Ave. included white quartzite stone, statuary marble, wood, veneer, stainless steel, and high-end light fixtures.
