KIRKWOOD HIGHWAY LIBRARY

The building facade of stacked horizontal cement board siding is fashioned as a series of boxes that represent the books stacked on a shelf. The challenge was to put up iron so that other trades could work in unison.

BEAR PUBLIC LIBRARY - 175 TONS

The site's multi-directional exposure is recognized in the circular form of the public spaces. Anchored by a large central column and trusses, the free span interior is light and airy with a carousel-like visual appeal. Support areas occupy an adjacent rectilinear space. This site is a 25,000 square foot facility.

SAINT JOSEPH CHURCH

The center of the church is topped off with a large round glass structure. This majestic church located in Aston, Pennsylvania serves over 2,100 families. The centerpiece of the construction project called for the creation of a circular dome. This remarkable

architectural feature allows a flood of sunlight and the glimmer of the moon to illuminate the interior. Coordination between our skilled detailers, shop fabricators and field construction crew was essential to the successful completion
