Question
The reception desk elevation calls out two different metal notes between the plan set and the finish schedule. Can you confirm the desk face finish and the countertop material before fabrication starts? Field photo of the mock-up attached.

Confirmed. The reception desk face is unlacquered brass with a hand-rubbed satin finish, and the countertop is honed Calacatta. The finish schedule has been corrected to remove the conflicting note. Revised schedule and a control sample photo are attached for your sign-off.

Perfect. Do mornings work better for you on-site? We’ll coordinate the delivery window around the walkthrough.
