This project was a renovation of a rundown existing building called “KidzVille” owned by a local church, Peter’s Rock. The client was the non-profit organization Starkville Strong in search for a way to provide overnight shelter for their clients who were experiencing housing insecurity and act as a food pantry for donated goods.
Expanding upon the clients wishes, programs such as multi use office spaces, meeting rooms, public bathroom, public laundry facilities, and a take out style food pantry window achieved a more community focused design that was open and inviting while still safe and secure. Visual security, dignity, comfort, and community are paramount to the design.
