2006 Tilt-Up Achievement Award Winner :: Distribution/Warehouse Division
Submitted by: Intergroup Architects
Tilt-Up was selected for this project because of its low maintenance properties, attractive look and cost-effectiveness.
One of the main challenges for this project was to meet the requirements of three design review committees while designing a very cost-effective project.
Architectural treatments include an extensive reveal pattern and 1.5-inch recesses at the corners, two different glazing colors and interlocking blocks of color. A dramatic entryway was created through the use of projecting, angled corner glazing. Features such as varying windows sizes, butt-glazed corner windows and steel detailing at corner entries add visual appeal to the facility.
This unique project is a highly visible Tilt-Up facility with unique a fenestration pattern and paint scheme.
