Are You Leddy For It?

2018 Best of Design Awards winners for Adaptive Reuse

2018 Best of Design Awards winner for Adaptive Reuse: San Francisco Art Institute at Fort Mason, Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects (Bruce Damonte)

2018 Best of Design Award winner for Urban Design: San Francisco Art Institute at Fort Mason

Designer: Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects
Location: San Francisco

Located on the edge of San Francisco Bay, Fort Mason Pier 2 has been transformed from a historic army warehouse into a satellite campus for the San Francisco Art Institute (SFAI). This adaptive reuse project preserves the industrial integrity of the landmark concrete-and-steel structure while supporting the school’s pedagogical goals. The iconic shed was restored with an integrated sustainable building system, working with the existing building structure and materials. A photovoltaic solar system was mounted on the building’s gabled roof. The design interweaves the historic and contemporary, preserving the dramatic, light-filled industrial structure to create 160 studios, workshops, flexible teaching spaces, public galleries, and a media theater.
