It delivers on a theme of movement as a reflection and expression of Cboe’s ever vigorous business. The design element distinguishes itself in numerous ways, including:Momentum: The major ceiling element speaks to momentum, depicting the dynamic trajectory of Cboe’s business. This expansive sculptural element begins quietly within the elevator lobby with recessed floor lighting, reaching upward and stretching beyond reception as a 140ft canopy reflecting the city beyond and with embedded tickers bringing the markets to life.

Reflective and Energized: The element uses a reflective material to draw the panoramic city skyline and daylight deep into the space.

Integrated and kinetic scrolling tickers translate the company’s immersively energetic business. Along the horizontal expanse above the white ceiling canopy another ticker spans the entire length engaging those on the adjacent mezzanine, effectively connecting everyone at any angle.Sharp angles cut through the element with shards of light reflecting the often volatile market activity inherent within options trading.Bronze screens that depict market movement filter light and views throughout.Beyond serving as a sculptural storytelling element, the piece also has acoustical properties and visually disguises significant ductwork and infrastructure above, adding to the overall environmental quality of the space..
