Repeat Client
Rosewood was pleased enough with Stromberg’s work that we were asked back for the expansion of the shopping area as well as to work on other Rosewood properties. In 2005 we were asked back again to provide additional material and work at the Crescent when the Nobu Restaurant was added (named Restaurant of the Year).
Durability
Now 20+ years after construction, the original Crescent Court GFRC and FRP has aged as gracefully as the quarried Indiana limestone it matches.
About the Architect
Known as the “Dean of American architecture” Philip Johnson was in his 80s when the Crescent was built. In 2005 at 99 years of age, Philip Johnson passed away. He will be missed.
“All architecture is shelter, all great architecture is the design of space that contains, cuddles, exalts, or stimulates the persons in that space.”
— Philip Johnson
“I like the thought that what we are to do on this earth is embellish it for its greater beauty so that oncoming generations can look back to the shapes we leave here and get the same thrill that I get in looking back at theirs – at the Parthenon, at Chartres Cathedral.”
— Phillip Johnson
“I hate vacations. If you can build buildings, why sit on the beach?”
— Philip Johnson
