RMR 4×4

RMR 4×4 is a renovation of an existing welding and fabrication shop into a luxury, pre-owned Land Rover dealership.

The office showroom has an industrial vibe with redwood plank accent walls, custom redwood cabinetry, concrete counter tops and a reclaimed galvanized wash basin sink that add warmth and character to the space.

Murals depicting the company branding and a new entry canopy revive the exterior of the building.

Large glass garage doors were added to provide fantastic day-lighting and the ability to change the showroom display cars easily.

An existing outdoor patio was enclosed in glass and wood, maintaining views to and from the street and providing a glowing, lively space to the community.

Pizzeria GM

Continuing a long, collaborative relationship between owner and architect, Pizzeria GM is a new building anchoring a prominent corner in the developing West Homewood neighborhood.

  • Project Type

The concept is evident in the materials which take cues from the original restaurant and its basic, unpretentious materials.

Simple concrete masonry blocks define the main structure with exposed steel roof joists. The attached wooden porch blends into the scale of the neighboring structures and reinforces feelings of comfort through the simplicity of detailing and design restraint.

An outdoor bocce court and game area border the park and an additive fabric awning along the front elevation is used to suggest an older building adapted to a modern use.

Market Table

The restaurant’s premise is to describe the purity of the food process from farm-to-market-to (dinner) table. Thus, the interior palette reflects finishes with a clean, raw feel reminiscent of being on the farm.

Reclaimed wood, concrete floors and counter tops, galvanized metal and stainless steel with accents of red give the space a fresh farmers market look.

The space includes a temperature-controlled butcher shop to provide customers with fresh cuts of meat. An exterior patio with a sail shade and reclaimed wood wall extends the dining experience outdoors.

Chick-fil-A Avalon

The design of this store was inspired by turn-of-the-century brick masonry buildings with load-bearing arched windows and brick detailing that breaks down the scale of the building.

The interior features grand dining spaces and large arched windows to provide exceptional daylight in the public areas.

Weathered steel and wood finishes, white subway tile, bright red mosaic tile and paint finishes give the interior a warm, vibrant, comfortable vibe.
