One of our greatest concerns in designing barracks is to create a desirable place to live for military service members. We’ve met this need by designing a variety of barracks with an emphasis on neighborhood characteristics, exteriors aesthetics, human scale, and inviting outdoor features to encourage leisure and socialization.
GLMV has designed several new housing facilities at Fort Riley, Kansas, including a renovation of 13 existing VOLAR (Volunteer Army) barracks into one-bedroom dwelling units with individual baths and kitchens and a complex of eight Unaccompanied Enlisted Personnel (UEPH) barracks with two-bedroom modules containing shared kitchen and bathrooms.

After Fort Lewis and McChord Air Force Base combined to become Joint Base Lewis-McChord, the installation experienced a need for expanded housing options. The barrack designs differed from complex to complex, depending upon the needs, families, and structures of individuals, and resulting in base housing as diverse as the population it serves.
The Army Reserve Center (ARC) is a key multipurpose facility type for the military, providing training, maintenance, administration, and storage in one stop. We’ve designed a number of ARCs for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, always striving to maximize use of space at each site and provide an attractive, functional resource for our military.
