architect forces the exposed look on an existing building.
One of my favorite projects was designing the HVAC for a top of the line theater for a school district. While it's not radio city music hall, this thing was decked out for a school district theater. The architect laid out a partially concealed ceiling. When it was all said and done and everything up that high was painted black, you couldn't even see the diffusers. That was a beautiful design, and I wish more architects were as creative as that.
