Solution: Helped architects to realize artistic vision while meeting code requirements
Presented open grid ceiling design options to allow upper concealment of sprinkler heads
Located sprinklers so as not to detract from architectural elements
Coordinated reflective ceiling plan extensively with Architect

Example: A sloped ceiling was noted in
an area intended for rack storage – not permitted by code
Hughes notified the project
architect and presented three options for alternative design
Identified Potential Code Issues and Presented Alternative Approaches for Sensitive Areas
