Vitria on the Square is one of the latest and most refined event spaces at OSU. There was no detail over looked on this project. It features custom carpet patterns, one of a kind ceiling details, and is complete with its clean and simple lines creating an understated sense of elegance and sophistication.
The Columbus Architectural Studio was elected to design an event space that would hold high caliber parties, receptions, to conferences. By incorporating clean and simple lines with rich materials, Vitria on the Square has an understated sense of elegance. Designed to hold various kinds of large events, The Grand Ball Room features vaulted decorative ceilings as well as full length windows. The Junior Ball Room was designed to act as a lobby and event space in itself. The conference rooms features softer materials and design for a productive atmosphere. All of the spaces have terrace access so occupants can enjoy the view and fresh air.
The Studio focused on providing a healthy mix of comfort and formality as this would be a place of both important business and a resting spot for the President of The Ohio State University. Paying attention to the finer details, this office balances tradition, elegance, and productivity.
This 220,000 square foot mixed use building is home to a variety of retail tenants, a future event space, and Administrative staff of The Ohio State University. The Studio was involved in the interior programming for the lobby and office levels.
