Thank you T.s. Strickland and Carolyn Grawi for the well written and narrated article about The New Palafox ADA improvements! Take 5 minutes and give it a listen to gain a new perspective on how people move in Downtown Pensacola.

A downtown rebuild promised a more accessible Palafox Street. We wanted to see how it worked at street level.

Too often, we treat our indoor and outdoor spaces as separate worlds. But the most beautiful and functional commercial properties are designed to reflect one single vision.

Creating a graceful transition starts with reducing barriers by using large window openings, matching floor materials, and even mirroring your indoor furniture layout in exterior seating. When done right, your building doesn't just sit on the land, it feels like it grew out of it.

Check out our latest blog post to see how we use even more elements, such as hardscaping and living walls, to bring harmony to every project.
