Since for some inexplicable reason it can take up to 4 months for the city to review an exterior facade design submission, we decided to get our plan ready for submission after we open the doors. Normally we would submit interior and exterior plans simultaneously, but since we were frantically preoccupied with getting our interior layout approved, the exterior planning fell to the wayside. 
The rendering above was the first one submitted by our designer Yukiko, which I have to admit I wasn't too thrilled about, but this was early on in our relationship together. After showing her some of the art and design that I loved, Yukiko was able to start tweaking things more to our liking. 
As with everything else in this build, nothing is as simple as it seems. Despite the possibility of a city approval for exterior re-facading, the owner of the building has not been the easiest to sell on big changes. We're hoping that they'll finally realize that our building is starting to give Norm's a run for their money. We really hope that our rendering can become a reality and isn't just a teaser of a pipe dream.
