Architecture & Building Design

Adaptive Reuse, Repurposing, and Repositioning

Designs that Adapt

Providing a successful and viable approach to an Adaptive Reuse project requires a delicate balance between design vision and technical expertise, one which also understands the history and reasoning contained within. A specialized architectural practice that involves thorough analysis and thoughtful design consideration is at the forefront of a sound reuse strategy.

Our Team believes that breathing new life into old buildings creates untapped value for our clients, our cities, and our neighborhoods. These projects conserve local resources, preserve historic value, cultural heritage, and diversify the built environment. A win-win for all.

As the needs of the real estate industry become more and more customized, creative repurposing of existing, underutilized facilities often best accommodates uses that are otherwise considered outside the typical box. At the same time, our clients seek a fresh new design approach from our team when repositioning older generation, iconic class A developments to respond to current market demands. Often in prime locations, these projects re-energize their sites and the markets in which they are located.

Smallwood met the challenges associated with renovating a circa 1903 building to meet a new use.  The innovative design is evidenced by our employees regularly telling us how delightful it is to work in such a user-friendly space.
