EMSI HEADQUARTERS + MASTER PLAN Client: Emsi/Strada Education Network Location: Moscow, Idaho Square Footage: 67,000 SF Completion Date: 2020
The new Emsi office building located in Moscow, Idaho will serve as the company’s world headquarters. Approximately 500 employees will utilize the building at maximum occupancy, providing software development, engineering, data science, economists, and sales. The project was delivered using an accelerated schedule that included a multi package delivery of construction documents. This process helped shave months off design and construction and allowed work to begin before the final interior design was complete.
“We aim to create a space that will facilitate collaboration, creativity and fun so we can continue innovating better solutions for our clients” - Andrew Crapuchettes, Emsi CEO

A master plan was developed that includes the addition of two similar sized buildings, public plaza, and a parking garage.

The conference room contains a custom-designed conference table that seats 14. Extensive windows take advantage of the building’s eastern exposure, allowing for the use of natural light.

RIVER STREET LOFTS Location: Boise, Idaho Size: 10 Units Completion Date: 2020 Located in the Shoreline Urban Development District, the River Street Lofts were designed for professionals working in the nearby downtown area. Each twostory dwelling unit is built above its own garage. The ten units are divided between two buildings separated by a common driveway entry. The design presents a human-scale building that blends with the context of the revitalization occurring in the area. The units use an exterior wall assembly constructed with insulated concrete forms. This highly energy efficient system is also used for the demising wall between each unit. This system achieves a high degree of thermal insulation and sound deadening capability.
The exterior shape of the building is vertical in nature with an offsetting roofline at the front and back overhangs. The exterior skin of the buildings is a combination of stucco and corten-metal. The same metal is used for the soffit of the upper-level balconies.

The steps to the front door alcove provide privacy and a sense of arrival into the home. The street face of each unit is activated with a front entry alcove and a second floor balcony. The building materials are stucco, dry stack rock, and heavy timbers with metal railings. These traditional materials are used in a contemporary design that complements the varied architecture in the Waterfront District.

TWIN FALLS CITY HALL A DA P T I V E R E U S E
Client: City of Twin Falls Location: Twin Falls, Idaho Square Footage: 50,000 SF Completion Date: 2017
The new Twin Falls City Hall was designed to coincide with a downtown revitalization for a community of around 50,000 residents. The 3-story, 50,000 SF building accommodates the relocation and centralization of many city services and departments. Prior to the renovation, a majority of city services were dispersed among three different locations. In this adaptive reuse project, Utility Billing, Engineering, Planning and Zoning, Administrative offices, Human Resources, Finance, Information Systems, and City Council Chambers are all now housed at the new downtown location.

“Twin Falls just got bigger, this is great, construction is beautiful, you have got old and new all put together.” - Miles Daisher, Twin Falls resident
Hummel performed an existing building analysis and determined that the only value in the former furniture store building was its structure. The building was then stripped of its finishes, systems, and hazardous materials. Efficient use of day lighting, energyefficient mechanical systems, as well as LED lighting were all implemented into the facility’s design. Twin Falls City Hall has been awarded LEED Certification. The architectural characteristics of the existing downtown structures influenced the materials selected for the new City Hall.

ICEHAUS BREWERY Location: Bend, Oregon Square Footage: 4,500 SF Schematic Design
Hummel worked with a private client to provide Schematic Design services for a new brewery in Bend, Oregon. Our team worked closely with the client to develop a design that housed new automated brewery technology that brews to perfection based on the data input from the users. With this newer brew concept, the design expresses the new technology in brewing beers.
The design also takes into consideration the use of outdoor space for the winter and summer months in Bend. Utilizing large roll-up garage type doors, the interior and exterior are seamlessly connected. A splash park adjacent to the patio space would enable parents and children to be connected during the summer months.
SILO PUB + CELLAR Location: Moscow, Idaho Square Footage: 3,000 SF Concept Design As part of an overall master plan concept for the Moscow Grain Elevators, Hummel conceptualized a pub and cellar space in the base of a 100-year-old 115’ tall grain elevator located in Moscow Idaho. The concept focused on elevating the historical aspects of the space by preserving and repurposing elements throughout the space while modernizing it through the addition of large storefront glazing and overhead doors at the Pub which allows for natural light and a seamless connection to the exterior patio. Accent lighting is used to highlight the existing board form concrete columns that support the grain above and wood finishes are used to accentuate and contrast the concrete by bringing warmth into the monolithic interior.
