Unwind in the Chase Sapphire Lounge at LaGuardia Airport
For the Chase Sapphire Lounge by The Club at LaGuardia Airport, a joint, 21,850-square-foot project by Corgan and ICrave, a Journey Studio, a section of the floor plate was removed to create a 20-foot main sitting area while retaining the mezzanine level, demarcated by Francesco Favaretto’s Bombom swivel chairs and plants, both real and faux, overhanging a band of wire-mesh panels backed by flexible LED strips.
Together with Corgan, their considerations revolved around questions such as: “How do you de-stress guests? How do you give them the experience of feeling like they’re in a whole other world, and not the daily grind of traveling?” according to Ginger Gee DiFurio, vice president and aviation studio design director at Corgan, which is also 7th amid the 100 Sustainability Giants.
