J.S. Dorton Arena by Matthew Nowicki - 1952

"Nowicki was seeking first of all not for a unique structure but for a unique space. The remarkable warping of the space upward, the exact reverse of a dome, would guarantee maximum daylight admitted from the two sides to the central arena. This labile kind of curvature of enclosed space marks a new epoch in architecture [Parabolic Pavilion 1952]." Paul Rudolph in Architectural Forum; The great Livestock Pavilion complete, 1954

Art Banner Design for Durham Parking Deck

Durham derives its strength and its appeal from the diversity of its citizens.  Individuals of all backgrounds are welcome making Durham a truly inclusive metropolitan community.  Strong graphic content of these large-scale banners emphasize individuality within a greater context of inclusion while the simple message is understandable from a great distance and will remain even as the colors eventually fade with age.

Carolina Family Dental Center - New Facility Opens
Harvest-01.jpg

Construction of the new Carolina Family Dental Center is complete!

When the Carolina Family Dental Center outgrew its pre-manufactured building, they sought a more welcoming, efficient environment for patients and staff. This economical design provides natural light, a pleasant atmosphere, and the space and technology to meet the needs of its surrounding community.

The center accommodates four dentists with fifteen operatories and a sterilization room. Using building-information modeling, we were able to provide plans that allowed the client to pre-visualize the proposed spaces, as well as the building exterior.

Throughout construction, the clinic was able to maintain uninterrupted operations in their existing facility while new construction took place on the existing site.  This design includes a low-maintenance metal roof and the installation of a full new vacuum system.
