Community Bank

An archaeological survey of the property revealed an intact stone foundation ruin of a railroad turntable and this was used as the design theme. It was our intent that the architecture manifest a strong link to its unique site while concurrently providing an individual identity for the bank. The building explains the historical significance and railyard setting in a way that is not overtly representational but is subtly referred to through strong geometric form and the use of traditional vernacular materials.

The reference is characteristic of a de Chirico painting where memory and space are distorted. The placements of traditional elements overlap and engage in new ways. Through the outward expression of the site’s past, the bank expresses its firmly rooted presence in the community, while at the same time putting forth a unique vision for the area’s future.
