Design Review through Construction Administration

The building’s overall design is sleek and contemporary, with a minimalist approach that focuses on clean lines and an uncluttered aesthetic. The structure is composed of durable, high-quality materials such as steel and concrete, ensuring that it can withstand the demands of a working agricultural space while maintaining its modern appeal. The covered crush pad perforated metal panels allow light to filter through, casting dynamic shadows across the building's facade. Custom perforated metal image (Zahner image wall) created from the winemakers label is the focal point on approach to the tasting room.
