“Seeing our work completed is gratifying,” says Julia Nagele, Design Director of Hewitt Architects. “We started designing the Emerald seven years ago as lines on paper and as pixels on our computer screens. It is satisfying to see a relationship between the big ideas finding their way into the smaller details.”
