MKThink made news this week (July 19), capturing a 2011 California Preservation Foundation Award. The firm’s recently completed project at Stanford University, the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (aka d.school) was recognized by the Foundation this July. The award was bestowed upon the project by a renowned jury of peers and other industry professionals for its sensitive and clever contextual in-fill of a late-1800′s/early 1900′s classic Stanford historic building type. The project aimed to create a state-of-the-art design and engineering facility, while recapturing the original highly-valued spatial and light qualities this historic structure once provided, but which had been lost from numerous renovations over the decades. The award is jointly presented to architect: Cody Anderson Wasney (http://www.cawarchitects.com/home.html) and MKThink: Interior Architect.
