Adaptive Reuse Architects in Atlanta

Some of the best projects start with a building that already exists. Adaptive reuse turns warehouses, houses, churches and older commercial buildings into new homes, businesses and community spaces, keeping their character while giving them a new life.

What we do

  • Change of use: house to office, warehouse to restaurant or retail, and more

  • Renovating older apartment buildings into modern, affordable housing

  • Community and church interior renovations

  • Code, zoning and accessibility research for existing buildings

Model the existing building first

Our BIM is fully integrated with AI, which matters most in reuse. We model the building as it really is, then design around its structure, openings and systems. You see the finished space in 3D, and conflicts between old and new are caught on screen instead of during demolition.

Permits and change of use

Changing how a building is used can trigger code, occupancy, accessibility and zoning requirements. We research them early, prepare permit-ready drawings and city submittals, and respond to reviewer comments until the permit is issued.

Adaptive reuse projects

  • Pavilion Apartments: an existing building in Milledgeville reworked into contemporary affordable housing, with better light, durable materials and shared space.

  • Clay St Church: a complete interior renovation of a community church, with a slatted cedar entry that reaches out like welcoming arms.

  • Read the Room: a music venue, cocktail bar and record store in Atlanta's Old Fourth Ward.
