GBCA is recognized for our creative and sensitive solutions that revitalize and provide relevant and sustained uses for our heritage resources. We are dedicated to helping achieve a society that values the reuse of existing buildings. Many of GBCA’s core values and fundamental practices are akin to those now embraced by the green design movement and the circular economy.
Our contribution to projects always begins with an understanding of what the heritage site has to offer and where the programmatic shortcomings are. Whether a former train station becoming a liquor store, a former residential building becoming a health care hospice, or a former jail becoming an archive, GBCA’s understanding of the sensitivities of each heritage building leads to successful new lives for buildings that need a new use.
GBCA has attained a unique reputation for our understanding of contemporary designs that successfully integrate old and new. We provide comprehensive services that include schematic design, design development, construction drawings, and contract administration.
