4Creeks Architect, Will Ruoff, completed plans for an existing office building in downtown San Luis Obispo to get an updated look and feel. This commercial TI exposed the existing brick that was previously concealed and restored the original architecture. With new windows, stairs, and detailing throughout that both emphasize but don’t distract from the original brick, the building gained a new life. While the structure had good bones to begin with, the interior and the exterior of the space felt outdated and dull. The split-level plan also had significant challenges in terms of ADA requirements, parking and access that had to be addressed and drove much of the design. While working with a custom metal manufacturer, the building was revitalized and upgrades to meet all current codes and standards.
