This is the second of the Interior Design Drawings, ID 102, the Lobby Level, Ceiling, and Wall Finish Plans. You can see down here in the corner that we have a legend, so we’ll use a symbol to show the ceiling finish, indicating the wall finish, and, as needed, it will detail the extent of the finish. If there’s a single finish area not included in the interior design work scope, it will be noted, followed by the finish notes. This is worth noting: all wall tile should be mitered at all inside and outside corners.
This shows that the interior designer is paying close attention to detail. So let’s look at the extents of the work. It will be in this public area above.
You can see that materials and finishes are specified for the serving area and the public bathrooms. The ceiling and wall finishes are specified here in the lobby, with special wall coverings at the columns, a special wall covering behind the front reception desk, and also behind this lobby desk. The ceiling and wall finishes, with a note indicating this is typical for all admin areas in the offices. In the meeting rooms, a similar note applies: ceiling and wall finishes are typical for all meeting rooms.
This drawing works in conjunction with the ID 100 finish legend sheet. If any modifications to finishes are needed, they will be made on the finish legend sheet. I hope you’ve enjoyed reviewing this drawing and gained an understanding of how the legends and drawings work together.
