Pepsi-Cola Office Wins a GOLD ASID Wisconsin Design Excellence Award!
The design team worked closely with the client to create new spaces that would encourage staff to adopt new ways of working and encourage teaming while providing an atmosphere that celebrates their history working with Pepsi and embracing their own endeavors in the beverage market. The new office spaces feature central collaboration zones surrounded by private offices, along with amenities like conference rooms, huddle rooms, and copy areas. Embracing the warehouse history, the design includes polished concrete floors, metal ceilings, and large glass windows reminiscent of factory windows, softened by area rugs and mid-century modern furnishings.

Lincoln High School in Wisconsin Rapids Public Schools Wins a GOLD ASID Wisconsin Design Excellence Award!
Through interviews with key stakeholders, an innovative design approach led to the creation of collaborative spaces, a café, fireplace lounge, and community room, all designed with flexible furniture to cater to diverse learning needs.

By integrating elements of the school’s branding and showcasing former standout students, the project not only revitalized the physical space but also fostered a sense of pride and inspiration among current and future students.

The redesigned entryway at Sauk Prairie High School creates a bold statement with its soaring two-story structure inspired by eagles’ wingspans while flooding the space with warm sunlight. Transforming the old theater into The Commons, an open collaborative hub, enhances vibrancy, with corridors flooded with natural light and vibrant school colors fostering a dynamic learning environment. Thoughtful environmental graphics, including a captivating Legacy Wall, enrich the educational experience, reflecting the school’s history and brand while preparing students for leadership roles.
Suncoast Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine Wins a BRONZE ASID Wisconsin Design Excellence Award!
The design aimed to integrate various services into a single orthopaedic clinic, utilizing easily identifiable pod clusters, each comprising three exam rooms surrounding a central staff workstation to facilitate team interaction with patients, enhanced by centralized digital wall coverings for wayfinding, featuring bright accent colors against a neutral palette and ample natural light.
