CLIENT PROFILE

Deco Landmark Theater, Inc. was founded in 1925 in Atlanta, GA and has become a pioneer in the promotion of the performing arts in the United States. The founder, Alfred Jones, believed in the spirit of human emotion as a binding force that could help the greater society overcome its differences and view life as a celebration. Since his contribution, the theater has only grown in its activities and outreach, and has now become home for many celebrated thespians, of national and international stature. The theater is a non-profit entity, dependant on the patronage of individuals and corporates committed to the development of the performing and fine arts. Â The prestigious theater seeks a renovation worthy of its standing as a center that earnestly satisfies its personnel, performers and spectators, while stimulating an improved brand identity.


PROJECT SCOPE Deco Landmark Theater Inc. is a successful historic theater located in downtown Atlanta, GA and is looking to renovate the interior of the theater. The necessary spaces to be renovated are the star dressing rooms (2,000 SF), a hospitality area and back of house staging areas (5,000 SF), and a small office fit-up at the corner of the building (3,900 SF). The theater will also be revamped and have a backstage tour exhibition design, a branding design following a branding package by others, and wayfinding for tours, employees, guest actors, actresses and youth groups. Deco Landmark Theater Inc. is seeking a LEED Silver-Gold rating and wants to maintain their historic landmark status. Construction costs are estimated at $5,500,000.00 (5.5 million) and the contractor will be selected through a bidding process.


DESIGN PHASING 1!

Programming De.kai will have an initial meeting, upon selection, with Deco Landmark Theater to conduct a client survey and speak with client in order to gather necessary data and information. During this meeting De.kai will get to know the client and their desires and requirements for the new space. Project budget, timeline, scope, objectives, criteria and limitations will also be discussed. The following day De.kai will revisit the site to photograph the existing space and field measurements will be conducted. Principal and project manager will report back to designers and consultants with their findings.

2

Schematic Design! The schematic design phase is to arrive at a clearly defined and feasible concept that will be presented to Deco Landmark Theater, to achieve understanding and approval. The schematic drawings will demonstrate basic spaces, scale and relationship components. This phase will also clarify the project Program, explore alternative design solutions for client feedback and provide a reliable basis for analyzing the cost of the project. LEED and Historic Preservation consultants will be involved in this phase.

!

3

! Design Development! Once the schematic design has been approved, the design development phase begins, in which the design is refined in more detail. This phase focuses on more technical aspects of building systems and materials, and allows more finalization and space function to a great degree. Presentations will be made to the client; 1. Preliminary and 2. Final – to help client understand project function and provide more detail about how the space will look We will review plans and drawings and make any changes/refinements that are needed. LEED and Historic Preservation consultants will also be involved in this phase.


DESIGN PHASING 4

Contract Documents!

5

Construction Administration!

6

De.kai will prepare a full set of contract documents (plans, elevations, sections, typical construction details and three-dimensional drawings) once the schematic and design development phases have been completed and approved by the client, Deco Landmark Theater. These will also be accompanied with specifications. After contractor bids and proposed timelines are concluded we will assist client in reviewing each bid to ensure accuracy and fair pricing.

At this phase, the contractor will become the most active part of the team. De.kai will be responsible for administration and overseeing the construction phase and ensure high level of detail, quality and make sure the construction is progressing on schedule. The observation will also ensure conformance with drawings and specifications. De.kai will be on site, conducting weekly site visits and meetings with the contractor. De.kai will also provide a detailed set of field reports to show to Deco Landmark Theater. Once construction is complete, De.kai will do a final walkthrough of the space and prepare a punch list.

Post-Occupancy Evaluation! With the permission of the client, De.kai will visit, conduct a survey, and evaluate the space after it has been occupied for six to twelve months. This phase benefits both the client and designer by answering questions about whether design goals and solutions were met, and if the project satisfies the needs of the users of the space.

Excerpt from The Architect’s Handbook of Professional Practice, 13th edition ©2000

Historic Preservation Robert Burley, FAIA, and Dan L. Peterson, AIA As a growing number of communities seek to preserve and enhance their historic structures and districts to stimulate tourism and economic growth, historic preservation services are in increasing demand.

Historic preservation services embrace a range of activities that include preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, and reconstruction. Although portions of each service overlap with others, the following are the accepted definitions: • Preservation applies the measures necessary to sustain the existing form, integrity, and materials of a historic property. Preservation work generally focuses on the ongoing maintenance and repair of historic features and materials rather than extensive replacement and new construction. • Rehabilitation adapts a property for a compatible use through repair, alteration, and addition while preserving those portions or features that convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values. • Restoration accurately depicts the form, materials, features, and character of a property as it appeared at a particular period in time. Restoration retains as much of the fabric from the historic period as possible. Inconsistent features may be removed and missing features faithfully reconstructed in accordance with the restoration period. • Reconstruction depicts, with new construction, the form, materials, features, and character of a property that no longer exists, as it appeared at a particular period of time, usually in its historic location. In the last few decades public recognition of the cultural and economic value of historic preservation has increased dramatically. As a result, the number of architects involved in preservation projects is steadily growing.

CLIENT NEEDS

Summary HISTORIC PRESERVATION SERVICES Why a Client May Need These Services To conform to local historic preservation regulations To qualify for tax incentive programs for historic properties To promote community revitalization or tourism To demonstrate support for historic preservation interests Knowledge and Skills Required Fundamental architectural knowledge and skills Knowledge of historic building styles, interiors, and landscapes Knowledge of historic construction methods and materials Familiarity with preservation technologies and techniques Research and investigative skills* Knowledge of government historic preservation tax and grant programs Representative Process Tasks Define project goals Assemble project team Determine significance and condition of property Determine applicable regulations Research history of property and document existing conditions Develop design concept and cost estimate Develop final design Participate in construction procurement and construction phases * Special archaeological expertise may be required for certain sites.

With increased public interest, more and more jurisdictions are adopting historic preservation regulations. These generally protect the appearance of existing structures in historic districts or of individually designated historic buildings. The purpose of such regulations is often aesthetic, but they are also intended to preserve community identity and historic culture. In some areas of the country, a property rights backlash is developing as property owners oppose such regulations, which they consider uncompensated “takings.”

ROBERT BURLEY is principal of the Burley Partnership in Waitsfield, Vermont. He served on the AIA Task Force for the West Front of the U.S. Capitol, and his firm has completed numerous historic preservation and restoration projects. DAN PETERSON has practiced as a historical architect since 1975. He has served as chairman of the AIA Historic Resources Committee and the AIA Historic American Buildings Survey Advisory Committee.

Tax incentive and grant programs at the federal, state, and local levels directly stimulate the market for preservation services. Owners of historic houses already qualify for federal rehabilitation tax credits, and it appears likely that even stronger federal tax incentives for homeowners will be passed. For business owners and community groups, the federal government and many states offer an array of tax incentive and grant programs. Many of these programs link historic preservation to urban revitalization and economic development objectives. The resources available to those working on historic properties make them attractive to many different types of clients for a variety of reasons. Architects offering historic preservation services must be familiar with the government programs that support preservation activities as well as knowledgeable about historic architecture. Compliance with preservation regulations. Many clients—homeowners as well as institutional and corporate clients—seek historic preservation services because their properties are in a location subject to historic preservation regulations. A key service historic preservation architects can provide for these clients is guiding a project through the approval process administered by increasingly overburdened state and local preservation offices. Qualification for funding and tax credits. An architect who is well versed in tax credit and grant programs for historic preservation can be of great value to clients who may not even realize their property has historical significance. Buildings need only be 50 years old to qualify for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, which is a prerequisite for many funding incentive programs. Many modern buildings are now reaching the age of eligibility. As well, the criteria for landmark status have widened considerably in recent years to include buildings that are significant largely in terms of cultural history rather than architectural value; an example might be the first McDonald’s restaurant. Because the availability of tax credits or grants can make the critical difference in the financial feasibility of a project, architects familiar with the process and eligibility requirements for taking advantage of tax credits and incentives offer a valuable service. Determination of architectural significance and development of a preservation plan. Architects who offer historic preservation services advise their clients on preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, or reconstruction approaches appropriate for a project. The architect determines which parts of a building(s) are original and which are later additions, interprets findings for the client, and coordinates the work of other specialists required for a project. The historical importance of the persons or events related to the project and the project’s aesthetic value, architectural character, existing condition, and future function are some of the factors considered in the development of a preservation approach. In some cases a client may discover during site analysis that a property has historical significance. The architect may then be required to oversee archaeological activity and make recommendations for proper handling of historic structures or resources found on the site. Depending on the locale, these activities can be regulated by state or local historic preservation regulations. Government clients hire historic preservation architects for urban and regional planning projects (the majority of which now contain a historic preservation element), for community revitalization projects that encourage tourism and/or economic growth, and for work on public parks and historic sites. Public agencies upgrading their historic buildings for continued or adaptive reuse sometimes require design teams to include an architect with expertise in historic preservation. Government agencies face increasing public opposition to construction of new transportation facilities due to concerns about destruction of cultural and natural resources. In order to gain approval for these projects, agencies often package historic preservation programs with civil engineering projects. For this reason civil engineering firms often engage in subcontracts with architects who have historic preservation expertise. Correct handling of historic materials. Many architecture firms specialize in building preservation, historic reconstruction, and preservation planning. These firms offer services that help other architecture and planning firms with issues related to archaic materials, systems, and elements that are the character-defining features of historic buildings. Many architecture firms may consider themselves capable of working on historic buildings because of their experience with rehabilitation work. However, unless they are true specialists, they often are not aware that improper treatment of archaic materials and systems will

accelerate the deterioration or failure of buildings rehabilitated using contemporary approaches. The burgeoning of historic preservation work has fostered the emergence of sophisticated methodologies and technologies. Architects frequently consult with historians or with a growing cadre of consultants who specialize in preservation technology. These experts use new scientific technologies for dating and identifying the exact type of building materials originally used. They also help locate supply sources. The Internet has helped information flow, making sources of specialized services and products easier to locate. Services related to historic preservation include master planning, urban planning, site analysis, research and assessments, programming, building design, construction documents, construction procurement, construction contract administration, and landscape design.

SKILLS Providing preservation services requires well-developed abilities in analysis, recognition, and restoration of buildings and other historic resources. The practitioner needs knowledge of historic building techniques and materials; expertise in architectural history; specialized experience in research, fieldwork, and analysis of historic artifacts; an understanding of techniques for conserving architectural materials; and the skills and experience to investigate, document, research, and analyze finishes, lighting, furnishings, and decorative arts in building interiors. Training and experience. Some clients have defined training and experience requirements. The U.S. Department of the Interior, for example, requires that professionals providing “historic architecture” services for its projects must meet the department’s guidelines for rehabilitating historic structures. At minimum, these individuals must have a professional degree in architecture or a state license to practice architecture plus either at least one year of graduate study in historic preservation, American architectural history, preservation planning, or a closely related field or at least one year of full-time professional experience on historic preservation projects. The Interior Department’s professional qualifications standards further specify that the year of graduate study or experience must include detailed investigations of historic structures, preparation of historic structure research reports, and preparation of plans and specifications for preservation projects. Specialized skills. The architect who practices historic preservation must keep abreast of government programs that affect projects with historical significance. Networking is important so that the firm can locate appropriate consultants and identify suppliers of services and building products that may no longer be available in the mainstream. Specialists that may be required include historians, archaeologists, architecture conservators, and historic interiors specialists. Other related disciplines include structural, mechanical, and electrical engineers and landscape architects.

PROCESS Often historic preservation projects require quite a lot of predesign and research time. Coordination with regulatory agencies is also a step that should be initiated early in the process to be certain the work that is planned will be found acceptable by zoning agencies or agencies managing grant or tax incentive programs. Factors affecting the scope of services. Among the factors that can affect the scope of services for a historic preservation project are the basic nature of the effort (to preserve, rehabilitate, restore, or reconstruct), the applicable historic preservation regulations, the significance of the property and facility, and the condition and integrity of the structure. Teaming approach. When possible, it is best to team with structural, mechanical, and electrical engineers and landscape architects who have experience in the special procedures required for preservation of historic structures. Architects who have minimal or no experience with historic preservation projects should include a historic preservation architect on the team. The role of this specialist would be to perform research and assessments, prepare the necessary preservation documents, and provide technical expertise for the proper treatment of archaic materials and systems.
