Provide a new Newspaper HQ

in the downtown Providence area

Objective:

The design objective was to develop abstract facades for the Newspaper Headquarters that thoughtfully articulate the complex interrelationships both within the building’s programmatic functions and in relation to the surrounding front piazza. This approach required an in-depth exploration of spatial zoning strategies and materiality considerations aimed at elevating the atmospheric qualities of the environment. By carefully balancing form and function, the design achieves a strikingly abstract external appearance that communicates modernity and innovation, while maintaining a clean, minimalist interior that prioritizes simplicity and user comfort.

The interplay between exterior abstraction and interior clarity creates a cohesive architectural narrative that enhances the identity of the Newspaper Headquarters as a dynamic and engaging urban landmark.
