First impressions matter—and this one is unforgettable.

Designed with intention and artistry, this reception area proves that function and beauty can exist in perfect harmony. The space was thoughtfully designed by the incredibly talented team at Kuwabara Design Group, and brought to life by Steel and Timber Custom Designs. Working in close collaboration with our own in-house designers, the result is a warm, welcoming environment that redefines what a reception area can be.

At the heart of the space is a custom White Oak Radius reception desk, anchored by a stunning waterfall-wrapped stone transaction surface. It’s more than just a workspace—it's a statement piece, crafted to elevate the entire room.

Surrounding the desk, the design details continue to impress. A cozy niche finished in American Clay houses four floating white oak shelves, subtly illuminated with undermount lighting to add depth and dimension. Overhead, five intersecting rustic beams add character and visual interest, drawing the eye upward and balancing the space beautifully.

Every white oak element in the reception area has been finished with Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C, enhancing the natural grain and ensuring long-lasting protection. The craftsmanship and material choices come together to create a space that’s both timeless and modern—where clients and visitors feel welcome the moment they walk through the door.
