Our Non-Profit Client Undertakes Another Major Project
Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

We have been working with a non-profit client of ours for about 3 years now on multiple projects. They require assistance on evaluating and designing potential enhancements to their facilities. The latest is our Featured Commercial project if you are interested in further details.
Given the nature of the work they do, we are pleased to be able to assist them in any way, shape or form. This helps better their organization in helping others in need.

They contacted us about reviving a previous concept renovation we had completed last year. Rather than just renovate one of their buildings on campus, an addition would be added on as well.
8TFive Studio began researching building code compliance against local state and city zoning regulations. This was to advise them on how to maximize the building use for added value in dorm rooms.
Building A – Addition
The primary objective was to increase maximum occupancy. One building in particular was potentially able to be added onto by a 26′ addition plus lower level renovations to convert to dorms.

Building B – Renovation
The current facilities housed an occupancy level that was less than ideal. After an evaluation of the building, major renovation to the restrooms as well as dorm layouts would double the beds available.

A Commitment to Our Clients
We love seeing returning clients seek additional work with us. Not only does it mean we were able to provide a great experience and well designed Service, but we get a chance to do it again!
