The Challenge

The Capital One Café project required integrating custom architectural elements and LED features across multiple areas of the building.

A faceted ceiling extended across two stories and continued to the building's exterior, requiring a custom-fabricated raceway configuration.

The project also required extensive coordination among AIS, D3LED, CallisonRTKL, and Gilmore Group to bring the design and installation together.

The Scope

AIS was responsible for designing, fabricating, and installing the custom architectural and LED features. All fabrication was completed in-house by AIS.

The project included:

  • Custom ATM wall vestibule
  • Two-story sunshade extending to the building exterior
  • Two fully customized LED elements
  • Custom LED mezzanine wall
  • Custom LED ceiling
  • Custom LED sunshade
  • Custom-fabricated raceway configuration
  • On-site installation of the complete package

How AIS Delivered

AIS designed and fabricated the custom ATM wall vestibule and architectural components, including the faceted ceiling and sunshade extending across two stories and to the exterior.

The ceiling required a custom raceway configuration to accommodate the project's design.

AIS coordinated with D3LED, CallisonRTKL, and Gilmore Group throughout the project and installed the completed package on-site, including the custom LED features.

The Result

AIS delivered a coordinated package of custom architectural elements and integrated LED features for Capital One Café in Union Square.

The completed installation brought together in-house fabrication, architectural detailing, LED integration, and on-site installation across the building's interior and exterior.

The project demonstrates AIS's ability to execute custom signage and architectural features that require coordination across multiple design and project teams.
