Palm Court
The Palm Court is the centerpiece of a multiphase renovation plan
for the resort. The 4,200 sf area of the hotel had once been a refined
open air courtyard overlooking Lake Boca Raton (the intercoastal
waterway). Sometime in the 1960’s the space was roofed over
and relegated to
function more as a hallway. The renovation project literally tore
the lid off the hotel, restoring light and grandeur to a space that
will now function as the social hub for the hotel, a place to congregate,
relax and have high tea.
The structure was built in 1925, expanded in 1928, and modified
repeatedly over the past 80
years most often without permits or drawings. The complexity of
working with the existing
structure quickly became apparent. Documents were continually refined
as the layers of
renovations were pealed back and the existing
|
conditions were revealed. To deal with
the
changes in a most effective way, the local team conducted joint
workshops to discuss each
others work effort and to explore ways the team could continue to
improve communication and
collaboration between the disciplines.
