We’ve been fortunate to work on hundreds of commercial and residential projects throughout the Valley, including more than 150 restaurants. Team collaboration with CLAYTON COMPANIES.+.ARDEBILI ENGINEERING.+.PAXTON CONSTRUCTION.+.AV SCHWANN.+.WESTERN FOODSERVICE.+.RC LURIEĪLINE is an architecture firm that is driven by a mission to craft meaningful environments that inspire people and their communities. Inside we kept the building materials exposed, used burlap with insulation as an acoustical treatment, removed portion of the second level to make a vaulted entry and bar space while creating a mezzanine bar and dining room above. The landscape was also enhanced, celebrating the existing mature trees and introducing a new warm feel to the campus.
The bones of the structure remained, but the finishes enhanced using metal roofing, concrete panel rain screens, and new window walls that extended from slab to roof with operable elements. By activating the courtyard with shade structures, built in seating, and turf play areas, the core of the center had been brought to life. Once the courtyard was cleared, the low ceilings removed, it revealed some fantastic spatial opportunities, namely a new brewery restaurant.
The simple pitched roof structure had classic mid-century lines and restrained potential. The “U” shaped collection of two-story buildings flanked a mechanical yard that was impeding the most unique feature of the structure: it’s courtyard. The quiet, understated shopping center had lost visibility and relevance in the current office market and needed a spark. Our goal in every adaptive reuse is to repurpose and celebrate the existing architecture while bringing our craft to new materials and modern details to make the building current. We were given the amazing opportunity to give this mid-century architectural gem a new life and street presence by introducing the restaurant and updated modern offices. Fate is part of an overall development, called the Center.
