Several mock-up facade studies experimentations and decisions were made using the site office as its “conceptual canvass” during the course of RWS’ construction phase..

The function of this building goes well beyond that of an ordinary temporary office structurel; its elevations are designed to such way that they have collectively reflected within its facade the important elements of the ongoing Resortsworld hotels and structures of which its office oversees.

Role in the Project

Architect/ Project Manager

SUMMARY The former Vito’s restaurant located in the Dixieland Historic District in Lakeland has been acquired and repurposed to be the new home for Lean Spaces, an office-sharing space. Business partners Sam Houghton and Pete Maris are aiming to have Lean Spaces, their “super high-end offices,” ready for a January opening, ending a decade of emptiness in the 3,300 squarefoot building. To the broader Dixieland commercial strip, the building will represent a subtle turn back toward South Florida Avenue, the partners hope, as they open up views through the front of the building.
