Writing 2nd week_for review

This writing is about my project description.
I would like ask you to review and would be happy to have any comments.

One of the Minneapolis-St Paul airport projects, which I designed at ICRAVE, was completed.
Minibar's concept was inspired by Minnesota nature and it creates comfort and fresh zone with contemporary design language. As a central focal point at the airport hold room, the centered free standing bar wrapped with custom mosaic glass tiles with green, yellow and white and it creates sculptural looking. Floating concave canopy with fiberglass panels reflects greenery patterns from bar and floor. 

The experience of space could make you inside another world at the airport. It would be different when you are sitting inside the bar from looking at the bar outside. Opening between the bar and canopy allows to see your gate and outside of window, so you can keep to watch your gate and flight status. Also, iPads for ordering food and browsing the web, and charging stations at every seat provide more convenience to airport users.

I wanted people could enjoy their time and experience special moment at the bar while waiting to board. I hope I can sit at the bar sometime soon and want to see how people experience this space.

  1. Could you let me know where would you like to publish this and anything else that would help me judge this writing? Words that are not clear: contemporary design language, creates sculptural looking, and the sentence that refers to the bar outside (3rd paragraph)...

  2. Marina, This writing is my personal writing practices for my blog, but it is originally intended for interior magazine.

    Revision:
    I removed the 2nd sentence at the 3rd paragraph, because it's redundant and not clear considering your comment.

    Minibar's concept was inspired by Minnesota nature and it creates comfort and fresh zone with contemporary expressions. As a central focal point at the airport hold room, the centered free standing bar wrapped with custom mosaic glass tiles with green, yellow and white. Floating concave canopy with fiberglass panels reflects greenery patterns from bar and floor. So, it makes the bar like a sculpture.
