𝗣𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲!   Check out our recap video from Rockin' the Court—a tournament hosted by our #Boise office, mixing competition and community spirit.   Our generous sponsors helped raise an incredible $40,000 (160 assembled beds and associated bedding) for Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This organization provides quality beds and bedding to children and families in need. Every swing of the paddle brought us closer to giving more kids a place to rest their heads at night.   Thank you to everyone who participated, sponsored, and cheered us on!

Fred Babcock, a small-town kid from Pocatello, Idaho, has had an incredible journey becoming a renowned architect in Utah and founding Babcock Design . From designing homes for notable clients like Huntsman and Redford, to renowned commercial builds nationwide, Fred’s story is one of passion, perseverance, and gratitude as he led the firm for over a quarter century. Today, the firm is currently led by three Principals—T.J. Winger, Rob Cottle, and Darin Bell—who collectively have over 80 years of architectural experience. They each commend Babcock as a mentor and friend, highlighting his exceptional design talent and outstanding interpersonal skills. "I remember asking Fred one time, 'Everyone who knows you, loves you. Are you that good?'" Winger recalled. "He said, 'I'm pretty good, but bring your talent—don't bring your ego. It's the client's money, it's the client's project. We help them make good decisions.'" As Babcock Design celebrates its 40th anniversary, we honor Fred’s legacy and his contributions to the architectural landscape. Read more about Fred and Babcock Design here: https://lnkd.in/gv4HhsiJ

Last week, we broke ground on the Iron County Sheriff’s Complex, a 33.5-acre facility located in #CedarCity, UT that will provide innovative programming focused on education and rehabilitation, while acting as the new headquarters for county deputies.   We look forward to working alongside Iron County and Babcock Design to bring this facility to life.

We are excited to highlight the completion of our latest project: The Osprey is a 278-bed student housing development for Boise State University! This unique project created modern student living options just steps from the BSU campus, replacing a defunct Pizza Hut. Located in a floodplain, the site posed several challenges, but our design team addressed them by raising the building to protect from flooding, and also creating a lively and engaging street presence. This development is a step toward meeting the growing demand for student housing at BSU. It’s a testament to the power of teamwork, innovation, and creative design solutions, bringing new opportunities for students to thrive.
