Describe the project, what makes it unusual, and/or any outstanding characteristics.
We were tasked with producing all cabinetry, wall paneling and millwork for the City Council Chambers of Antioch, California, taking into account the slope of the floor and curvature of the walls over a span of over 100 feet in order to blend cabinetry with tight and exacting tolerances to the unique site conditions.
List any items that were outsourced.
Multiple sheets of custom laid-up beech paneling (on both 3/4", 1/4" and 1/8" backing), along with solid beech to match were provided by Exotic Hardwoods of Oakland, CA.
