Creating Memorable Experiences

Interior Design is a vital element in shaping our understanding of the spaces we inhabit across our everyday lives. It is frequently the element of an architectural design that people notice first. Good interior design sets a mood, it provides a curated set of discoveries, it tells a story.

As an architectural and interior design practice, we love telling a good story. Frequently these stories tie into the mission of the our clients. Across all these projects, in close collaboration with our clients, we strive to unlock an underlying narrative, translate it into physical form, and elevate a project through a cohesive set of interlinked moments—balancing the details while still focused on the big picture.

Our interior design projects span across many different market types, including mixed-use development, multi-family residential, retail, workplace, and hospitality (hotel and restaurant)

Architecture, Interior Design

The Pensacola Little Theatre is a non-profit community theatre that has been providing diverse theatrical experiences in Northwest Florida since 1936. But this Center serves more than theatrical needs, and the idea of a renovation was realized as the solution for communicating those services to the community and potential visitors. The goals for this design and renovation were to revitalize and modernize the building from the inside out and to engage the community through a renewed sense of both storytelling and cultural education.

Part of the modernization efforts for the renovation, the addition of the rooftop terrace sought to celebrate the community aspect of reestablishing a center of culture in Pensacola. This addition includes new lounge and patio areas, as well as a small performance area for music and other entertainment, shows the importance that connection plays in this design.

Providing opportunity for community members and visitors to converse and enjoy the warmth of social connection allows the Center to be important to the community outside of just theatrical engagement. Physically, the rooftop terrace is both warm and open, with touches of natural elegance and “swankiness.”

Following the recognition that their operation had grown in size and stature over the years, Second Harvest stakeholders set about renovating their workplace to be a physical manifestation of their very public mission in the community. Given their active role in the community, the design team took inspiration from the organization’s work itself, but also the colors and qualities of food—hues largely composed of green with pops of yellow and purple.

The second floor of the building, utilizing the double-height lounge of what was previously warehouse space, houses administrative and employee offices. The space represents one of the many “ship in a bottle” design constraints the challenges of building within an occupied warehouse.

A renovation of a historic 19th century building into dining rooms, wine cellar, and coffee/gelato bar. This new restaurant for Sucre blends interior schemes honoring New Orleans hospitality service, architectural heritage of the French Quarter and the ambiance of a modern, Parisian patisserie and bistro in a setting unlike any other: an 1830s townhouse of roughly 4,580 square feet.

The $1.8 M project spans two floors, the ground level designed as a small French patisserie where guests can enjoy a small treat or cup of coffee in an intimate setting, and the second floor dedicated entirely to the restaurant service and fine dining. Each area is distinct in terms of planning, yet consolidated in a cohesive aesthetic scheme courtesy of herringbone flooring, dark metal finishes and the light/airy ambiance of the space overall.

Thirteen suites within provide space for overnight families, in addition to communal space to promote interaction between families and create a community of support within the house. Calming colors strive to provide a peaceful environment for families dealing with an otherwise heavy emotional burden. Whimsical patterns in the wall coverings and pillows, along with a second-floor play area filled with bright colors, toys, and books, simultaneously make children feel at home while providing room for communal activities. Coastal and lagoon murals, along with carefully curated landscape art, further heighten the appeal.

Until recently, this 800-seat theatre venue in downtown New Orleans persisted as a shadow of its colorful days filled with stage performances, music, and vaudeville. Today it finds new life, reborn through a painstaking process of revitalization and restoration.

New program elements included multiple bar venues and lobby/waiting areas, along with larger, upgraded restrooms. These spaces are enclosed within a variety of glass surfaces – a mix of clear, frosted and mirrored glass fitted with an ornate, layered pattern inspired by the original plasterwork found throughout the building. The multivalent textural contrast of these new spaces establishes a romantic, ephemeral aesthetic that transitions the guest into the language of the historically restored performance space.

For the original Beaux Arts interior, we stabilized the current condition of the theatre and embraced the beauty found in the imperfect, the incomplete and the impermanent. Existing plaster was retained and repaired, and the entire original interior was provided a soft, matte whitewash to reveal the intricacy of the historic detailing.

“…this is a beautiful space with clear sensitivity to the original building, striking an aesthetic balance between the expression of the old with the more contemporary moments found within. The result is a clearly articulated space, lacking the fussiness and current trends found in adaptive reuse projects of older warehouse buildings. ”

MORE TO THE STORY

The project occupies the third and fourth floors of the CAC— connecting the two floors with an open architectural staircase—and features an extensive amenity and commons area, varied meeting and office space, and a roof deck. This renovation preserves the classic Warehouse District architecture of the existing building while incorporating modern elements. The heart of The Shop is the commons area designed to facilitate conversation and connection. All of The Shop’s amenities offer small businesses, entrepreneurs, and arts-based professionals the resources they need to grow.

A workplace renovation for local furniture supplier AOS Interiors, EDR, in association with Verges Rome Architects, designed the approximately 7,000 SF renovation and 3,000 SF expansion. The space’s palette was transformed, moving from predominately red and black to white and lighter colors, enhanced by the building’s expansive windows, and natural light flooding in. Blackened steel walls were utilized to tie the firm’s branding into the interior the moment guests arrive.

The project utilized the DIRTT (Doing It Right This Time), a custom pre-fabricated system, throughout the space. This allowed the total construction to be complete in only 6 weeks. A fully equipped Java Center showcases the DIRTT millwork capabilities and an open lounge area displays various furniture pieces in a space that can be transformed for large meetings, presentations, yoga, training, events, and more.

A new headquarters building for a fast growing contractor. Situated in an industrial stretch of New Orleans’ Tchoupitoulas street, the building nimbly responds to its surroundings in both scale and context. Within, 30,000 square feet provides an open work flow concept with minimal offices, multiple small and large conference rooms, and in-house gym and yoga studios.

“We applaud the team for pushing for higher-level thinking in an industrial neighborhood…There is a wonderful illusion of utilitarian perception from a distance that reveals itself as a more subtly detailed and well-crafted structure upon closer inspection. There is also thoughtful attention to sustainability and beautifully restrained interiors, creating a complete project deserving of recognition.”

The design seeks to convey the ethos of the company in using simple materials elevated by detail and craft and provide a modern workplace designed to ease the work/life balance. This can be found in the numerous amenities throughout. While the ground floor warehouse extends to the property line, the second floor steps back, providing occupants with an outdoor terrace that takes advantage of panoramic views of the activity along the Mississippi River.

A workplace renovation of an 8-story post-modernist building constructed in the 1980s for a private, non-profit mutual insurance company located in Baton Rouge. What started as a simple mechanical upgrade evolved into a complete interior renovation which re-envisioned and rebranded LWCC as a contemporary model workplace with a focus on health and wellness.

After extensive workshops with the client, EskewDumezRipple looked holistically at the building and concentrated LWCC’s footprint to the lower five floors, connecting each with communicating spaces and stairs. This design strategy resulted in an open loop circulation that allows the user to traverse the lower floors without having to use the elevators or exit stairs and promotes greater physical connectivity between the various departments.

Similarly, wood slat ceiling reference rail tracks and wall coverings provide subtle reference to the surrounding landscape.

LABI is a 15,000 SF workplace renovation of a warehouse originally constructed in the 1880s. The design sought to express the original bones of the building with interiors that spoke to the cultural and natural landscape of southern Louisiana.

Finishes similarly spoke to the open nature of the organization and its mission and vision for the greater Louisiana region. LABI’s business is an abstract one: furthering entrepreneurship across Louisiana. Thus the design team selected finishes speaking to Louisiana, the landscape and broader context. This resulted in a plethora of natural materials, wood, paired with other regional industrial finishes: steel and metal.

A new corporate headquarters space for LCMC Health aimed to bring their previously scattered staff into one cohesive space.

Our Process: Engaging & Collaborative

ENGAGE: Ask Questions and Imagine Solutions

Our team utilizes a collaborative, partner-driven method in building consensus:

» Early in the design process, we work with your stakeholders in identifying the type of look and feel necessitated by your space.

» We hold workshops, incorporating various visual taste tests, so your organization can be integrated in developing a vision of your space.

DESIGN: Visualize the Outcome

Once the conceptual framework is established, we continue to collaborate with you to develop spatial alternatives responding to your vision:

» We produce floor plans, renders, sketches, and computer models to communicate design ideas for your review. We’ll test decisions for compliance with your budget.

» By the end of this phase, you will have a clear understanding of the final product.

DOCUMENT: Prepare for Construction

The importance of documentation is to communicate design solutions to everyone involved in the process (your organization, bidders, contractors, vendors, and regulatory authorities):

» During this phase we integrate architecture with engineering and document compliance with codes and regulations.

» The construction documents include technical drawings, written specifications, and diagrams to depict precisely how things fit together in assembly of the whole.

IMPLEMENT: Deliver the Vision

After documents are completed, we’ll take the lead in getting your permits, helping you select a contractor, and finalizing the budget:

» During construction, we act as facilitator, connecting your people with the contractor, advising and recommending, interpreting documents, and reviewing samples and shop drawings to ensure that everything gets built as it was designed.

» We will join you at the jobsite to review the progress of the work and keep an eye on the budget and schedule on your behalf, ensuring you receive the product you purchased.

EVALUATE: Verify Successes and Lessons Learned

We’re firm believers that our relationship doesn’t end when the contractor turns over the keys:

» Our specification standards call for a formal walk-through within a year of completion. From this, we’ll issue a report about findings that can be used for warranty claims if needed.

» We’ll monitor your energy consumption data and make recommendations.

» We’ll listen to your management, marketing, operations people and help design alterations about what can be improved.
