Office Buildings

north park studio, Architects LLC

These 2 office buildings were designed and developed for 2 very unique properties.

The Royal Ridge Professional Office Building

The Royal Ridge site slopes dramatically from north to south. The back of the building becomes three stories with dramatic views to the south. Interior spaces are divided into 625 square feet modules. This allows a reception area, two offices and a utility space as base rental. The building, designed in the early 1980's, has operable windows that take advantage of the mild weather occurring during northeast Ohio's spring and fall seasons.



8000 West Professional Office Building

This professional office building occupied a corner site with its back to residential areas and front facing commercial strips on the other three corners. The mirrored surface, buffered by a line of trees at the back were meant to disappear toward its residential neighbors. The center stem and end enclosures are a green cement panel textured to simulate slate. The height was limited to three stories. The setback worked very well with the building presentation on the street.
