This month’s
AIA-SWO Construction Tour features a 2-story, 12,900 square foot wood-framed
corporate office building for a local timber and property management company.
Robertson/Sherwood/Architects
developed the design after extensive conversations with the client regarding
its day-to-day workflow and internal operations in order to get the
organization of work groups correct. Also key was gaining an understanding of
how the company regarded itself as an organization and developing an aesthetic
that fit with what the company wants to portray to the public. This included
finding key opportunities for the display of wood products manufactured from
trees harvested from its own forest lands and also special artwork and
artifacts collected over the years. Overall, the design is meant to fit in with
the surrounding larger corporate office buildings. The exterior utilizes brick,
wood, and metal roofing.
The project
is following the design-build project delivery process.
