3D/Group was part
of a design team to complete the entire
interior renovation in only four weeks. This
project involved a totally new design image
for Pendelton. Recently completed, it shows a
mix of wooden flooring, carpeting, custom
millwork, storefront, and a combination of
acoustical ceilings and exposed structure.
The new lighting incorporates both track and
incandescent to develop the required effects.
3D/Group assisted as the project architect and coordinated the graphics designers
with developing and incorporating key graphic
elements with the store layout.

3D was founded in Columbus, Ohio in 1980 where it provides
U.S. based clients with professional design services. Such
services include architecture, engineering and project
management. Its employees frequently collaborate on projects.
3D/Group, Inc. is completing
renovation of it's offices, located at 266 North Fourth Street, in downtown Columbus.
Once the site was selected, the intent was to change the
typical office lay-out to a more alternative and flexible
scheme. The layout would be 80% open plan and only 20%
enclosed office. But putting everyone where they needed to be
became a task in itself, because the concrete columns in this
1920’s building are distributed in a somewhat irregular and
tight configuration. The original "open-office" plan
was to group the staff into "project teams". With
input from our OFFI-source division, the layout changed to
include interchangeable cubicles and wall panels. Each station
shares a center peninsula table so that more
"teaming" and coordination could be on-going on each
project on a daily basis.
Glass walls will allow natural light to penetrate the
private interior offices. The second floor employee lunchroom
has a large continuous vaulted skylight. There is also a
walk-out balcony for those that desire to dine outside on nice
days.

A comprehensive renovation of a 327,000
sq.ft. historic structure (circa:1852), that
was the largest enclosed square footage until
the construction of the Pentagon. Previously
a hospital from its original construction, 3D
converted the structure into a comfortable
223-unit congregate care facility. Some of
the luxuries include assisted living, a
300-seat formal dining room, a full service
kitchen, a bank, separate men's and women's
health spa's, hobby and craft areas. There
are also large meeting rooms that are used as
a community center which provide classroom
space for a local community college. The
$19.8 million project required a tight 16-month construction schedule to meet the
developer's deadline for their incentive tax
credits. The project was completed on time
and in budget. HUD awarded 3D the Chief Architect Award for
Excellence in Design and Construction
Management for this project.

This project sits at the Gateway to the Main
Pedestrian entrance to The Ohio State University. The
project included renovation to a group of
existing buildings. The bank and food court
with outside seating areas were new
additions. The existing buildings were acid
washed and recolored to match the different
facings, and the interiors were redesigned to
make these buildings into a single efficient
unit. The sidewalk and landscaping also complimented the new
look along High Street.
