Revitalizing two aging bow-string truss buildings posed a unique challenge for us . We had to blend historical charm with modern functionality while meeting stringent earthquake protection standards. Combining the two structures into a unified office space demanded creative solutions to preserve their character and history along with creating a relaxed home feel .

Collaborating with a renowned movie producer added a distinctive dimension to the project, inspiring us to craft an organizational layout reminiscent of the Bento Box concept. The addition of expansive skylights flooded the interiors with natural light, enhancing the lofty ceilings and fostering an atmosphere of openness and tranquility. Even though many custom materials were used in the design, the building’s original character was preserved while being able to infuse modern functionality.
