Placework just finished a unique study for @skowheganart - the revered artists retreat - in Madison, ME. The campus is known for the rustic artist`s studios that dot its landscape. But weather is changing - how to keep the artists cool, without changing the character?
We studied passive strategies to improve occupant comfort. Read more at the link in our bio!

Beginning deconstruction can be one of the most exciting times of an adaptive reuse project. Preservation of key elements and discovery of things long uncovered (like this textured tile!) is great fun. Thanks to @chapmanconstruction for embarking on this next adventure with us.

History is our present, and our future!
@strawberybankemuseum`s recently opened Penhallow-Cousins House tells a story of an early 20th century Black family in the Puddle Dock neighborhood while also inviting new stories as two new tenants move into the restored space.
See the link in our bio for more on this historic preservation project and what it offers the community.

We`re excited to hear that the Somersworth City Council voted last night to bond the construction of the @somersworthlibrary renovation/addition. It will include a new children`s area full of light - and out of the basement! This project will be transformative for the community - we`re proud to be part of it!
