Every building has a story to tell. And over time, a building may end up having a second and third (or sometimes a fourth) act throughout its useful lifespan. Purpose-built and designed to achieve unique client needs, here are 6 projects that showcase the many lives of a building:
WESTERN INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD (WIRB)
IA helped WIRB consolidate staff into a single site. The result was the transformation of a former industrial plant with the design of a research facility.

BUMBLE BEE FOODS
Relocated to the historic Showley Brother’s Candy Factory building near PETCO Park, IA created a space that preserves and showcases the historic structure while reflecting the Bumble Bee brand throughout.
