GHR Law Offices

CBTWO helped the well establish local law firm, Garrett Hemann Robertson move from an inadequate and aging facility into a new office headquarters. A master plan was established to provide GHR with a new state-of-the-art office space as well as room for future growth. The two-story, 18,000 SF office building successfully divides the sensitive, private office areas from the public spaces. Clear wayfinding and a simple floor plan concept give visitors open spaces with plenty of natural light and views. The project was also designed to preserve the existing White Oak trees on site. Wood elements were incorporated into the building to help tie the building to its natural surroundings.

Miller Elementary

Miller Elementary School, like many others around the State of Oregon, was an aging facility in need of accessibility and security updates, improved gathering spaces, and as well as additional space for the growing population of students. The project included the addition of five general classrooms (totaling 7,410 SF), site-work related to the new addition, demolition, flooring and roof replacement, plumbing, intercom, card reader and other security improvements. The design process moved quickly and smoothly through a series of stakeholder meetings which garnered input, and the result was a structure designed to meet the required functions while providing additional features such as the covered patio area for students.
