Charlotte, NC |
Charlotte FD Station No. 39
Charlotte, NC |
 |
|
Jury comment: “…a responsive design proposal for an
‘infill station’ to be constructed in an established
neighborhood. The design, which references a 1920’s
Charlotte station that was also inserted into a
neighborhood, was instrumental in overcoming
neighborhood objections to the station’s proposed
location.”

Pendleton, SC |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Jury comment: “…what sets
this project apart is the site studies that the
designers did to show the clients how to effectively
increase the buildable ‘footprint’ available and thereby
realize a larger, more useful building program.” |

Peoria Fire Department
Jomax
Station 7
Peoria, AZ
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Jury comment: “…an
interesting transformation of the ‘3-box’ floor plan by
the use of roof form, material selections, material
assembly and color. The station’s interior volume is
much bigger that the scale of the exterior would lead
you to believe.” |

San Luis Obispo County
Fire Station 21
San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport
San Luis Obispo, CA |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Jury comment: “…an
appropriately industrial strength aesthetic for an
airport crash-rescue facility. The designers made the
most of materials selected by the cleaver use of
construction details. Even the communication antennas
are not an afterthought. They are used to add additional
careful detail to the building.”

Recognition Award for On-the-Board

|
Stewart-Cooper-Newell
Gastonia, NC |
Bluffton
Township Fire Protection District Station 37
Bluffton, SC |
 |
Jury comment: “…the design
thoughtfully continues the architecture theme of the
community and will contribute to the architectural
language of the ‘low county’ community vernacular.”
|
|
Recognition Award for Constructed Fire Stations Projects |
YAS Architecture
Chicago, IL |
Evanston Fire Department Station 3
Evanston, IL |
 |
Jury comment: “…a very modern design language,
yet it clearly ‘reads’ as a fire station. A very good
use of a constricted site and proof-positive that
stations with proper exhaust extraction can have routine
apparatus checks performed in the bay negating the need
for a large exterior apron. The validity of the design
will be proven in time by how well the extensive window
treatment is maintained.”

Recognition Award for Constructed Fire Stations Projects |
Garner and Brown Architects
Charlotte, NC |
Hemby Bridge Fire Station 23
Hemby Bridge Volunteer Fire Department, Inc.
Union County, NC |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Jury comment: “...a very
well done fire station with careful attention to the
relationship of one line to another in the exterior
elevation. A very large station volume scaled down in
size by the use of materials and sitting. The dedicated
‘wash stall’ on one end of the station is most unusual,
but it make sense.”

|
Recognition Award for Constructed Fire Stations Projects |
Cole + Russell Architects
Cincinnati, OH and
Motly Architecture and Design
Montrose, CO |
Montrose Fire District Station 2
Montrose, CO |
 |
|
Jury comment: “...a very
cost effective, yet creative use of the basic metal
building…a design that is durable and appropriate for
the site location.” |
|
Recognition Award for On-the-Board Fire Stations
Projects |
Atkinson/Dyer/Watson Architects
Charlotte, NC |
Waynesville FD Station No. 1
Waynesville, NC |
 |
Jury comment: “…Exhibits an
effective use of a constricted site. Floor plan has good
‘flow’ to the apparatus floor while maintaining
opportunities for expansion. The exterior presents a
recognizable public entry and an appropriate ‘mountain
esthetic.’”
|
|
Recognition Award for
“On-the-Boards” Fire Stations Projects |
Perlman Architects of AZ
Scottsdale, AZ |
Yuma Fire Station No. 1
Yuma, AZ |
 |
 |
 |
Jury comment: “One of
several ‘themes’ proposed, the jury finds the adaptation
of the ‘territorial style’ vernacular to the exterior
skin of the proposed fire station to have the most
promise.”
