SALA Architects Minneapolis Office

SALA Architects’ Minneapolis home since early 2006 is located on a vibrant urban corner. Making full use of the two exterior walls afforded by the location, design workspaces are arranged along the day-lit perimeter. The workspaces wrap an administrative core containing staff and service areas that are open to daylight and capped with a polycarbonate “lantern” visible from the street below. Conference rooms maintain visual privacy and borrow light through similar polycarbonate clerestories, and a large swinging door can be positioned to create space for the entire staff or a focused meeting around a heavy oak table. Maple casework and polycarbonate enclosures create identifiable workspaces that contrast with exposed structure and brick walls that show evidence of alterations and the building’s long history.
