With a nod to our firm’s 1919 roots and an eye to the future, we undertook this renovation in a juxtaposition of historical preservation and state-of-the-art sustainability. Contemporary finishes and furnishings are included within the confines of original, exposed building elements, resulting in a beautiful work environment and the creation of a local landmark that has spurred downtown growth.
This 30,000-square-foot renovation transformed a 1931 Packard auto dealership into LEED Silver headquarters for our architectural services firm in Wichita, Kansas. The two-story building is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and required extensive renovation while maintaining a number of original design features.

When Greensburg residents first set out to assess the damage left behind by an EF5 tornado, they discovered a station wagon perched atop their courthouse, along with shattered windows, a missing roof, and soggy, rain-soaked interiors. The historic structure had suffered major damage, but the town was committed to restoring it to its original character.
Just a few years before it became known as one of the most formidable arenas in college basketball, Koch Arena, home of the Wichita State Shockers, was in need of a facelift. We teamed up with Populous to first prepare a study and program and then provide design for major renovations, additions, and reconfigurations to the 10,000-seat Roundhouse.
