Larson 2011 Rebulld and Renew
In 1987, working with firm founder Wayne Larson, P.E. and given 7500 sf in an existing warehouse buildng, Rolf Lokensgard Architecture created a spirited space for engineers by coordinating structure, materials, lighting, and color. Uplighted bar joists clear span for flexible, individual workstations with CAD reaching under a ceiling grid for special lighting requirements. The principals are located by function for clerical, conference, and production relationships. Materials are selected for eonomy, durability, and availability for a ‘fast’ construction schedule. Color highlights structural systems, accents key functions, strengthens office graphics, and stimulates continuity.

Twenty five years later and over 15,000 sf, Rolf Lokensgard Architecture renews, updates, and reconfigures changed reception/ mailroom functions, creates a new color palette including paint, carpets, floor finishes, new architectural woodwork, ceilings, lights, furnishings and expands the kitchen/ break room, all with lots of common sense. The project was completed with a twenty five+ year network of talented contractors and craftsmanship.
