Since its founding in 1996, PRI has embraced the best emerging practices in conservation, new urbanism, sustainability, livable community design, urban design, and landscape architecture. During that time the PRI team has led visioning, design, and master planning processes for some of the most innovative campus, institutional, mixed-use, and urban design projects under development today.Software Used: AutoCAD, Sketchup, Lumion, Adobe SuitesPark + Ford, Alexandria, VirginiaA: Adaptive reuse defines every aspect of Park + Ford. Originally constructed in the 1980s, this pair of 14-story office buildings sat over a stark plaza, parking garage, and surface parking lot. Responding to a changing office market, the client re-envisioned the project as a residential enclave in a mixed-use environment. The transit-rich environment of Alexandria City facilitated the conversion of excess garage parking into daycare and residential amenities. The introduction of planting, cabanas, seating, artful lighting, and warm pavers in former parking areas was also carefully coordinated. Clever reuse of the existing garage, fractured-rib concrete planters, and concrete pavers minimized demolition of existing site features, consistent with the project's sustainability goals.The Perch,
