AN OUTSTANDING OPPORTUNITY, AN OUTSTANDING TEAM

ARXITEKTOR ARQUITECTO ARCHITECTE ARCHITEKT

HIGHLANDTOWN/GREEKTOWN STATION

We came back to the community for feedback. This example is for the Highland-Greektown Red Line Station.

We took a holistic approach that considers education, transportation, sustainability, economic development, affordable housing, future growth and resilience in the face of climate change.

We produced 3D Drawings that excited Marylanders about our vision for the Red Line Inner Harbor Station.

Even the Baltimore Ravens put us on their team!

A new 50,000 square foot Consolidated Car Rental Facility and one of the first in the U.S. to utilize an innovative “mall” approach to car rental. MIMAR PONTE MELLOR assisted Michael Baker in developing the design and production of the construction documents. Additional supporting structures include: A 6,000 – space parking garage, maintenance facilities and a car wash.

CUSTOMER SERVICE BUILDING, BWI AIRPORT, LINTHICUM, MARYLAND

MIMAR/ BAkeR planned and designed The Customer Service Building, a 50,000 SF sized facility designed for 2020, with a central atrium for a one stop shuttle. Rental car counters are distributed “radially” around the lobby in a “mini-mall” concept for parity. The project creates a multi-agency Customer Service Building that affords parity between the respective agencies with regard to customer service and convenience. The primary design concept is building efficiency and customer-friendliness; efficiency of travel and maximizing comfort from the passenger loading zones to the customer agency service space to the ready/return.

CRUISE SHIP TERMINAL Renovated Building for Cruise Ships

A warehouse was completely transformed from a dirty cargo storage area into a luxury cruise ship terminal through collaboration with STV-NY, which is one of the nation’s top 25 design firms in a number of categories.

NAZARIO DEVELOPMENT – LAUREL MIXED-USE

MIMAR PONTE MELLOR delivered full service architectural and engineering design and construction administration services for the new Grant Plaza office building located in the center of the historic district in the City of Manassas, Virginia. Opened in the spring of 2009, the highly detailed, traditionally inspired brick façade is a welcome addition to the historic fabric of the old blocks near the County Courthouse. The project brought together two small city land parcels to form a solid city corner lot. The architecture expresses the corner boldly, with a partial rotunda, cornice and detailed ironwork reminiscent of building from the late 1800s/early 1900s that make up some of the older city core.

MIMAR PONTE MELLOR worked closely with the City of Manassas Architectural Review Board for approval of the design concept. The building contains retail space on the first level and office space on levels two through four. This project is the second office building in downtown Manassas.

We are worked closely with the developer, the regional planning authority and local citizens groups to understand and address relevant concerns to ensure timely approval. The project has exceeded client and lender expectations in terms of appearance, adaptive re-use of existing structural components, timeliness and above all return on investment. As a confirmation of the project’s success, the project has been leased to American University as a law and graduate student dormitory with only minor specific modifications to the original building plan.

Responsibilities of the Architect included complete site, MEP, living unit design, and interior finishes through construction drawings. Construction administration services included extensive value engineering evaluation studies, project bidding, performance analysis, life-cycle costing studies and on-going support services for construction management. Development of this project which required the conversion of an existing office building shell into a residential building, not only involved architectural issues but re-zoning and change of use requirements.

MIMAR PONET MELLOR worked with senior staff to create identity through a new logo and reinforcement of the DMI “brand” through careful repetition of interior design elements in every office location. As one of the region’s fastest growing service providers, DMI’s space needs did not keep pace with the business growth and create a flexible template that could be used at various office locations to adjust higher staffing as needed.

BALTIMORE RED LINE STRUCTURES Maryland Transit Administration (MTA)

Surface Station Scheme A TRANSLUCENT PLANES

Through simple, yet sophisticated design, the vision of this canopy is to

seamlessly blend within it’s context along the Red Line regardless of location

within Baltimore.

The use of strong vertical planes will create an identifiable presence on the

platform by establishing a gateway for customers. In contrast, the canopy will

appear to be a floating plane above with little support structure revealed.

By cladding the planes with lightweight translucent materials, from a distance it

can appear to become one with the surroundings, but upon closer inspection it

shows itself to be a more dense form.

At night, when internally lit, these translucent planes will serve as a beacon of

light identifying the station. The simple form and translucent materials allow the

form to bathe in light throughout and become a recognizable glow.

Next set of concepts to reflect the sailing history of the Chesa-peake.

OUR PROCESS

Design Development showing interchangeable panels for easy adjustment of bus route. We recommended that route informa-tion be placed facing passengers rather than the bus drivers.

Direction from MTA was to include a wave element that is painted on buses.

Connections to other modes of trav-el have been added to increase brand awareness for MTA. End of line destinations have been added for smaller signs to aid wayfinding.

You may find this historic preservation experience of value. Our affection for historic structures, sensitivity to historic neighborhoods and experience with adaptive reuse allows us to evaluate older buildings with a more holistic eye for their potential contributions to the community. Though not every old building can (or should) be saved, you can be assured that we assist every client in objectively determining the highest and best use of construction resources to serve the needs of each community.
