In the article, McGinnis says:

“American Airlines seems be getting drowned out and left out of a lot of the media coverage regarding the opening of SFO’s new Terminal 2, which it shares with Virgin America. Of huge interest to frequent travelers is the opening of a fantastic new Admiral’s Club, with touches I’ve rarely or never seen before in an airport lounge….like a fireplace and pine trees! T2 is so high-end that the entire terminal feels like one giant airport club, so AA had to pull out all the stops to make this club even nicer than the rest of the terminal…and I think they succeeded.”

Be sure to read the full article to see the shots of the club, too.

It was a real pleasure to be the designer of this project and we are elated with the kind words shared.

STAFFELBACH: Creating Newsworthy Spaces

Southwestern Medical Foundation is moving next door to the original Parkland Hospital in Dallas.

In the article, Steve says:

Southwestern Medical Foundation is moving its offices to the historic Parkland Hospital complex where the UT Southwestern Medical Center got its start in 1943.

In January, the foundation offices will be in a new building next door to the recently restored historic building at Maple and Oak Lawn avenues.

That space that they are moving to is being designed by Staffelbach.

Another recent news item comes from USA Today:

American Airlines announced this week that it will relocate its operations at San Francisco International to the airport’s new Terminal 2 sometime in the spring of 2011. Currently, AA operates out of SFO’s Terminal 3. AA says that “in conjunction with the terminal move, American will construct a brand-new Admiral’s Club lounge,” which it adds “will be the only airport lounge in Terminal 2.”

That brand-new Admiral’s Club lounge is being designed by yours truly, as well.

We are always honored to be a part of the projects that become a part of your lives.
