The Edge at USF Perfectly Incorporates
Antique Wood in a Contemporary Space
Goodwin company was proud to partner again with our good friend Beverly Frank of BFrank Studio in Tampa to help update the student commons at University of South Florida – St. Pete. The Edge – formerly referred to as the Coquina Club – was built during the 1970s. The original design was very boxy and institutional, and not very user friendly.
BFrank Studio updated this dated space into a modern and trendy student common area. They incorporated Goodwin’s River-Recovered® Heart Cypress in several ways throughout the site:
An interior heart cypress feature wall and ceiling adorned with 3-1/4″ LED light panels.
Heart cypress on the receptionist desk face with trimmed corners and edges.
A gorgeous study table crafted from a River-Recovered heart cypress slab.
Exterior 3-1/4″ heart cypress wrapped columns and overhanging ceilings.
BFrank Studio’s attention to detail even included an exterior accent wall routed with inspirational text and applied into an alcove bench.
