Project Strategy
The Joseph & Swan Eye Center is a new 15,000 SF facility in Lafayette, Louisiana that specializes in primary and cornea eye care. Interior building elements were designed to create a soothing and comforting environment for both patients and staff. Ritter Maher Architects selected flooring finishes exclusively from the Tarkett product offering to execute the facility's function and aesthetic. ID Latitude vinyl plank is prominent throughout the building and was selected for extreme durability in a commercial environment as well as its low maintenance requirements, facilitating cleanliness for the client. The planks provide a continuous flow into each space and have acoustic and resilient properties helping to reduce noise and making the floor comfortable underfoot for those who are walking most of the day. Vinyl plank pairs seamlessly with adjacent Resonate carpet tiles, especially in the optical shop, with the use of Tarkett’s Metal-Edge transition profile, to create a sleek profile and border. Additionally, Reveal Millwork profile base is used within the lobby area.
