The Kubala Washatko Architects’ Studio

Guided by Tom Kubala, the designer of SANC’s award-winning building, learn how the Kubala Washatko Architects preserved the beauty and historic integrity of the power plant they converted into a creative studio. Typically older buildings are poorly insulated and energy renovations are done without concern for maintaining desirable historical qualities. This unique architectural space is a working model of the firm’s commitment to sustainable design, historic preservation, and the creation of a life-enhancing work environment.
