Institutional & High-Acuity
High-acuity environments do not forgive imprecision. Clinical facilities, licensed environments, and institutional assets demand technical rigor that most commercial work never tests: regulatory certification, life-safety compliance, and systems that cannot go down. We serve as a fiduciary to owners and institutional boards, holding the standard of care as a non-negotiable, and we have walked away from work rather than compromise it. That discipline is what our clients are actually buying.
Featured Projects
Trustmark Park
Trustmark Park, Pearl, MS
Compliance-driven improvements to a professional baseball venue, executed to Major League Baseball facility standards with zero disruption to the event schedule. Sports venues are institutional assets with unforgiving calendars; the work has to land between game days, every time.
Medical & Professional Asset Repositioning
Fondren 3000 Building
30,000 SF medical and professional asset repositioning. A comprehensive turnaround of an underperforming medical and professional building, aligning clinical tenant requirements with the technical infrastructure high-acuity uses demand.
Higher Education
Millsaps College, Jackson, MS
When a college weighs the future of its campus, the analysis has to hold up in the boardroom. Our facilities programming and feasibility work for Millsaps College was commissioned by the administration and presented to the trustees, translating enrollment, mission, and building condition into capital options an institution could act on.
Spengler's Corner District | 119 & 121 N. State Street
119 & 121 North State Street Offices
Institutional turnaround: the Spengler's Corner portfolio took the oldest occupied block in Jackson from roughly 5% to 95% occupancy, capitalized with more than $3 million in state and federal historic tax credits. Historic preservation here was not sentiment; it was an asset repositioning strategy executed through the tax credit capital stack.
119 & 121 N. State St. reside in the center of Spengler’s Corner District, the oldest occupied block in Jackson. The remodel aimed to retain some of the historic elements of the building; while connecting a variety of offices and suites, increasing natural lighting, and creating an outdoor roof deck.
Spengler's Corner
District Renovation
Coalesce & 111 North State Street
109 & 111 N. State St. reside in the center of Spengler’s Corner District, the oldest occupied block in Jackson, and is on the the National Register of Historic Places. The owners purchased the building in 2015 to convert the bottom floor (109) into a co-working space called Coalesce, and the top floor (111) into three offices, which included the office of Seabold Architectural Studio and S5 Construction at the time of opening. This substantial remodel was awarded first place in the City of Jackson’s Historic Preservation awards and is a State Historic Tax Credit project.
Saltine in Duling Hall
Historic Preservation meets Contemporary Restaurant
Saltine is a historic adaptive reuse project located in the Duling School in Fondren and is a Mississippi Landmark. The 100 seat, 3,000 square foot restaurant converted an abandoned end of the building into an open floor plan that highlights the curved wood fired oven and oyster bar. All of the original windows, doorways, floors and exterior walls were preserved while marrying them with the new function of the space.
Creative Business Incubator
An 11,000 SF industrial adaptive reuse converting a storage facility into a business incubation center, developed with Midtown Partners in support of Millsaps College's Else School of Management, housing gallery, workshop, office, and production space.
Historic Renovation
and Addition
Fairview Inn
The remodel and addition entailed adding a master suite, living room and kitchen for the innkeeper and his family to call their own. Before this addition the family had no place to gather outside of the public space of the inn. The Bed & Breakfast is located on the National Register of Historic Places.
