We are excited to share that our Plainfield | Guilford Township Public Library project was recently recognized by the Indiana Chapter of the International Interior Design Association (IIDA) with a Design Excellence Award as a remodel project in the public sector.

After 20 years without major updates, our team re-imagined the library’s public spaces and staff areas to create welcoming, functional, and flexible environments for patrons and employees. From vibrant, light-filled children’s spaces to an inviting Indiana Room and improved acoustics and workflows, the re-design brings new life to the entire library.

Congratulations to the library and our project team! With every project we move the needle in the right direction towards spaces that help communities thrive.

Anyone driving down I-70 westbound in eastern Indiana can now see our new State of Indiana welcome center starting to take shape! And it’s probably a shape that most people have not quite seen before!

The State of Indiana determined that the design of each new welcome center would reflect a strength of Indiana’s culture and identity. The Centerville Welcome Center is focused on the rich history of basketball in Indiana, a state that has produced many famous players, coaches, and stories of the sport. Of the thirteen largest high school basketball gymnasiums in the country, eleven of them reside in Indiana. We conducted a study of fieldhouses across the state and channeled the common architectural themes into the Centerville Welcome Center. It is designed with large steel trusses, traditional brick, and wood cladding, and limestone, that all echo what is commonly seen in familiar Indiana fieldhouses.

In the interior, the floor pattern reflects a half-court basketball floor, and lobby seating includes bleachers and stadium seating where an individual could rest or wait for others.

We are honored to work with INDOT on this project for our state!

Check out the construction progress at the new Indianapolis Animal Care Shelter. These drone images offer a noticeable perspective of the six courtyards that share walls with the kennels, giving dogs access to both indoors and outdoors within their kennel spaces, and driving more natural light into the enclosures! The new 62,000 square foot shelter will provide medical care, public spaces, training areas, administrative services, and outdoor spaces – all designed with consideration of animal comfort and operational efficiencies. Our team is grateful to be working on this visionary project for the City of Indianapolis Animal Care Services, and the support of Friends of Indy Animals! Their vision is becoming a reality to greatly improve these services to our Indy communities.

The Batesville Memorial Public Library’s new Arts & Innovation Hub is set to become a vibrant center for creativity, learning, and community engagement. This dynamic addition will significantly expand the town’s capacity for arts and cultural programming, offering a large gathering area, flexible programming rooms, a makerspace, and a variety of meeting spaces designed to support both the arts and entrepreneurship.

From the very beginning, the library envisioned this project as a welcoming gateway to the community. Located on the town’s main thoroughfare, the building features a street-facing lounge with large windows that create a sense of openness and invitation. Designed with adaptability in mind, the Hub’s spaces can easily transform to meet a wide range of community needs. The architectural design draws inspiration from Batesville’s history of manufacturing. Elements such as the angled roof over the programming room refer to historic factory forms that bring natural light in evenly without overheating the space. In this same spirit, a custom front door is being built by a local wood carving shop, an appropriate measure in a City with an enduring history of wood-working trades.

The Arts & Innovation Hub will sit directly beside the existing library, separated by a thoughtfully designed outdoor plaza that will serve as an inviting communal space and a seamless link between the two buildings. Construction officially began in July, and we’re thrilled to see this exciting vision begin to take shape for the Batesville community!

Something bright and cheerful for your Friday afternoon! This beautifully renovated space at the Plainfield Public Library. The new window film relates to existing stained-glass elements throughout the library, and casts colorful shadows that move throughout the day depending on where the sun is.

Scroll over to appreciate a sketch of the library drawn by our late founder, Ken Montgomery, when our firm designed an addition to the library some twenty years ago.

And keep scrolling for some late 90’s nostalgia to see what this space looked like back in 1998. Everything has its place in time.
