The Hitachi Experience Center in Hagerstown, MD took home three AIA Pittsburgh Design Awards: a Certificate of Merit in the Medium Project category, the People’s Choice Award, and the Excellence in Acoustics Award. Congratulations to Desmone, Giugiaro Architettura, Davis Construction, and Hitachi Rail.
Rise Structural Group was the structural engineer of record. Steel V-columns, a two-way cast-in-place concrete roof slab supporting a green roof, and a curved canopy that cantilevers around the full perimeter of the building made this one a standout to work on.
Thanks to the Desmone team for bringing us on.
