PROJECT DETAILS

Due to reorganization and expansion of court administration, the District Attorney's offices required an interior remodel on two levels of the existing 1950's County Admin-istration building. The program of about 10,000 square feet includes private offices of various sizes, open office areas, support spaces, conference rooms, a reception/ waiting area, and a law library. Full replacement of HVAC systems serving the floor is included in the project scope.

Corridors and hallways could comply with code without expensive 1-hour construction. Important considerations were to take advantage of ample daylight for offices, to improve circulation by grouping together functions such as central filing, to address security issues while retaining a sense of openness within staff and visitor areas and to integrate existing spaces with new by using contemporary materials.
