2007 AIA Michigan Design Honor Award

 Ronnisch Construction Group Headquarters
Royal Oak, Michigan

Jury Comment:
The creative layering of this simple palette of materials has produced a very elegant space.”

Project Description:
A vacant 1960’s industrial building is given life as the new headquarters of the Ronnisch Construction Group. This multi-dimensional construction management company is made up of young, dynamic, interactive personalities. Ronnisch envisioned a work environment that reflected not only those qualities, but also a sense of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Whether in the main conference room, open work areas, lunch with the crew in the café, or in one of the private offices, this space was made for everyone’s use and enjoyment.

Ronnisch desired a space that would grab you at the front door and pull you into the energy of who they are and what they call “The Ronnisch Way”. The design attempts to create a visual and physical layering of spaces, materials and functions. This integration of public and private spaces allows everyone to feel and experience the energy of this dynamic company no matter what your job description or reason for visiting.
