Gradient Financial Group

Archimea originally completed interior design for Gradient Financial back in 2014, and we were pleased to be called back in 2025 to update the first floor. The challenge was to blend the new interior design with the other 3 floors in a seamless flow.

  • A luxury hotel-like reception desk and focal wall offer a stunning welcome. The renovated lounge, featuring a peninsula fireplace, creates a centralized destination to accommodate large groups and provide gathering space.
  • A gallery wall is planned to highlight client’s artwork, while the propeller and airplane references are from the Founder’s experience as an Air Force Pilot.
  • The mirrored bar, service island, billiards room, and lounge furniture all reinforce the hospitality theme. Luxurious textiles and updated specialty lighting create a warm ambience.

The result is stylish and elegant, with warm neutrals and dark walnut wood veneers. Burgundy and Blue textiles reinforce the Gradient brand.

Many thanks to Paolo Olimpo, Brenda Stock, Jane Beckman, & Vicki & Ryan McManimon of Ryan Elliott Designs LLC,  who contributed to this project.
