In 1996 HIPP + BEST Architects PC, then named J. CLARK HIPP Architect PC, was asked to assist in a unique design problem, design a new 2,000 sf retail structure while the store remained open during construction. The result was a distinctive design that incorporated a wide range of retail display opportunities and exceptional materials. The interior spaces vault upward to provide areas for display of birding merchandise and leads to an outdoor area designed to accommodate bird bathes and feeders for customer viewing. The unique design solution tripled the available parking, tripled the retail square footage, and allowed the owner to remain open for all but five days during which he transferred merchandise between the existing and new facilities.

HBA provide full design services including assistance with contract bidding and construction observation services.
