The Warehouse Complex Renovation was The Columbus Architectural Studio's paid entry into a Design Competition.
The Warehouse Complex Renovation was a competition. The Studio entered to reimage an unused Brewery Factory Complex in The Brewery District in Columbus, Ohio. Our design was respectful of the masonry buildings but through selective additions of light and glass that clear contrasted and complemented with the heaviness of the nineteenth-century existing framework. Our program consisted of a condominium tower, a hotel, an office building, and retail with a signature beer garden.
The project consists of a new 34 story mixed-use tower residential tower.
The Ice Haus concept is the reimagined vision of an existing building district in North East downtown Columbus.
Our team helped to transform the former daily newspaper headquarters — and recent addition to the Historic Register of Places — into a modern work space without losing its historic integrity
