Before construction, the two floors acquired by this firm were occupied by different tenants with opposing programs and styles. Renovating these floors to be cohesive could only be achieved with attentive coordination and creativity: strategic partial demolition and salvaging throughout; extensive millwork renovations to fit new and old equipment; hands-on CA efforts and flexibility.The finished office’s contemporary elegance is accompanied by dramatic views of the city and river in each cardinal direction.

Do Hut is a children’s playhouse designed, built, and raffled to support local charity: Henrico CASA. It provides the opportunity for constructively occupying one’s self without prescribing how one should do it.
Four interactive built-ins transfigure in both form and use to foster a spectrum of static and dynamic activities:
1. Storage Unit / Work Surface
2. Murphy Bed / Chalkboard
3. Window Seat / Chest / Chalkboard
4. Hearth / Chimney / Lookout
Do Hut emphasizes the thoughtful use of modest materials. The room’s structure is a marriage between the orthogonal and the curvalinear, sheathed in color. Its form is an 8’ x 8’ x 8’ box with one radiused edge - springing from an interior datum line that distinguishes wall from ceiling.

To counteract the effects of this window-scarce space, Martin Dermatology allocated design efforts and budget to provide a warm, bright, and welcoming space.
These design elements strive to invite users to a more transparent and patient-centered model of care—delivered through a membership structure that prioritizes on-call provider availability, longer visits with patients. By removing third-party billing and insurance-related barriers, this model reduces administrative complexity and protects patients from the unpredictability and limitations often associated with traditional insurance plans.

A children’s playhouse - (for playing and for putting on plays) designed, built, and raffled to support local charity: Henrico CASA.
By three sets of sliding doors, The Curtain is divided into two distinctly-themed zones: green/fairytales/forest/spells and red/black/theater/magician/trickery/illusions.
These sliding doors (or curtains) are sandwiched between plywood and revealed through arched openings with cove lighting: a simplified nod to the proscenium arch in classical theater.
The lateral faces of The Curtain have exposed studs painted black, giving a “backstage” effect. From here, actors can deploy objects hanging on pulleys, access props stored in treasure chest benches, work on the counter-height desks, or maneuver light with the operable colored windows.
