Project: Ted Lare Studio

Architect: Schiffler Associates

Location: Cumming, Iowa

Contactor: Woodland Fair Construction

Owner: Ted Lare

Cost: Undisclosed

General: A new office, greenhouse, and retail space for a landscaping business threads the line between low cost and high-end design. Wood construction was used throughout for economy. The roof consists of standard prefabricated wood trusses, but these were spread at 4ft on center and exposed to create a light feeling. Sloping, solid round posts create visual interest at the main entries.
