PROJECT
DATA |
This relatively small
project demonstrates our commitment to designing attractive,
unique buildings.
Because the site is located within Pensacola’s Historic
District, the building and all of its components fall under the
jurisdiction of the city’s Architectural Review Board.
The building and canopy
of the facility are sheathed by redwood siding and trim which
bear the color scheme used internationally by British Petroleum.
The design is an ornate Victorian scheme which
incorporates several vital characteristics of the surrounding
neighborhoods. Utilizing
the architectural language of the historic district, the design
was well accepted by both the Architectural Review Board as well
as the British Petroleum corporation; the client was also
pleased. The building
serves as a prototype for twelve other gas stations we completed
for this client in Florida and Georgia.
