Design is underway for Dave’s Hot Chicken in Greenville, SC, a Los Angeles-based street food brand. The food brand is also opening locations in Columbia, Charleston, and Myrtle Beach as part of its South Carolina expansion. Dave’s initially opened as a parking lot pop-up in 2017 and now has over 60 locations across the United States and Canada.
We recently completed a project with Hobby Lobby of Lecanto, Florida. As a longstanding collaborator with Hobby Lobby, we were delighted to have the opportunity to bring the 55,000-square-foot store to life. The building is part of the new Corta Commons in the area and joins other retail operations like PetSmart, Panda Express, and Skechers. We partnered with RealtyLink on the project.
As the days grow shorter, and a chill creeps into the air, our thoughts turn to Halloween and often, Haunted Houses. When we think of these Haunted Houses, we typically have one form of design that comes to mind: Gothic architecture. This ancient style, with its pointed arches, flying buttresses, and intricate ornamentation, has become linked to the spookiest season of the year.
