Join us for the MA! Architecture Tours in October 2024, featuring 6 standout commercial projects, including the innovative Ramblin’ Reck Garage at Georgia Tech designed by Square Feet Studio. This Net-Zero, LEED Platinum-certified pavilion beautifully blends tradition with modern sustainability. It’s more than just a garage—it's a tribute to Georgia Tech's iconic Ramblin’ Reck, with features like a spinning turntable and glass pivot doors for public engagement. Join us for timed tours, presented by the architects and designers, for an in-depth look at this iconic space. Book your spot when slots open in mid-September—don’t miss your chance! If you can’t join the timed tour, for the first time ever, we’ve created audio guides you can listen to whilst visiting the building at your own pace so that everyone can get the most from the tour.

Cumming Campus President Ken Crowe served as the Master of Ceremony.

All spoke about the university’s mission being Students First with Innovation and Diversity. The expansion for the Cumming campus will help support the vision and economic development that is strategically placed here with the great need for physical and mental health. Student Rebecca Mann spoke about how this will impact the student nation in healthcare with her focus in counseling. Acknowledgement also goes to John McGruder and Mary Helen McGruder as pillars of the community and for their passion for the University’s growth.

To kickstart the new K-12 school year, our Atlanta studio teamed up with local partners for the fourth annual Perkins&Will Backpack Bash. This year, we supported students at Continental Colony Elementary, Fickett Elementary, and Kimberly Elementary in Southwest Atlanta. Our goal? To alleviate the stress of purchasing school supplies. Thanks to the generosity of 46 partners from the design, architecture, engineering, and construction industries, we raised over $50,000 in donations. This allowed us to give more than 1,100 students new backpacks and enough supplies to last the entire school year. 🎒 ❤️ Giving back to our communities is a cornerstone of our #SocialPurpose program. We’re thrilled to have collaborated with the faculty and families of Continental Colony, Fickett, Kimberly Elementary Schools, and Atlanta Public Schools. ⭐ Our top donors include Brasfield & Gorrie, LLC, Breedlove Land Planning Inc, Andrews, Andrews, Hammock & Powell, Inc., Daltile, Carroll Daniel Construction, Conway & Owen, EQUILIBRIUM, Facilitron, Hammond & Associates, JE Dunn Construction, Mazzetti, Mohawk Group, Newcomb & Boyd, LLP, NOVA Engineering and Environmental, LLC, Shear Structural, Structor Group, Swinerton, and Total Systems Commissioning, Inc.

In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, the demand for accessible, high-quality medical facilities is at an all-time high. With occupancy rates of existing medical office buildings in major cities exceeding 90%, healthcare systems are facing a critical shortage of outpatient space. Many healthcare systems and real estate developers are addressing the shortage by constructing new healthcare clinical spaces that not only meet current needs but also anticipate future growth. Our recent project in Sharpsburg, Georgia is a prime example of this trend. Designed to expand horizontally as needs evolve, the Piedmont Fischer Marketplace is a long term commitment to the health and wellbeing of its community.
