Foresight Energy - Downtown St. Louis

Foresight recently relocated their corporate headquarters from Palm Beach, Florida to the 26th
floor of Metropolitan Square; St. Louis’ tallest building.  Gray (www.graydesigngroup.com) provided full scope design services including architecturally ‘integrated’ artwork to solidly brand the new facility. Foresight wished to convey the story of coal; both above and below ground. Design elements include a coal wall water feature, a boardroom table that features chunks of coal in the center trough and a twelve screen video wall that tells the story of the coal process. The lobby ceiling is a simulated mine ceiling. The project exemplifies ‘one man’s floor is another man’s ceiling.’
