SPECIALIZED COMMERCIAL When we take on a commercial architecture project, we use a similar methodology as in residential and home builder solutions. We look into the future of how the development will be experienced by business owners and their customers. We envision how the development can contribute to the vitality and beauty of the community, while respecting the budgets and other constraints of the developer. The result is the best of all worlds: functionality, aesthetics and a lasting, positive impact on the surrounding area.
Ranch Reserve Plaza, Westminster, Colorado: The Ranch Reserve Plaza, a specialty retail center adjacent to the Ranch Reserve Villas, received the Award for Excellence in Design and Development from the City of Westminster. The Villas (also by Olson Architecture) received the same award the previous year. The architecture complements the Southern European style of the adjacent Villas and includes a mix of rich exterior colors and stone types. (Photography by Philip Wegener)
