This restaurant located in downtown Valdosta area was designed to create a unique dining experience for Valdosta. The small scale design provides an intimate space for the indoor and outdoor dining. The original building was gutted, leaving only the original brick exterior walls. The highly stylized front entry provides visual identity and a welcoming atmosphere. As patrons enter the restaurant, a bar with a sitting area provides guests the opportunity to observe city activities through the large, glass curtain wall. A larger area accommodates guests for dinner. The restaurant also features a patio for guests who want to dine al fresco.

IPG worked with the owners of Georgia Beer Company and the Valdosta - Lowndes County Development Authority on the transformation of Valdosta’s 100-year-old waterworks building into a craft-beer brewery and event space. This 7,050 SF renovation brought the first brewery to South Georgia. IPG worked to design this brewery by adhering to the importance of highlighting the history while bringing in aspects of a fresh industrial feel. By selecting materials by their appropriateness to this historical adaptation, IPG was able to balance the old with the new. The project was reviewed and approved by the Valdosta Historic Preservation Commission.

This project included a lead paint abatement; historically, accurate window installations; bricked-in openings were removed and restored with period-correct window replacements; new roof; demolition of existing concrete floor and replaced with a new level slab; built-in tasting counter; new water, sewer, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical; commercial walk-in cooler; new working office, public restrooms, and storage.

This center is the foundation of retail shopping in the popular North Ashley Street area of Valdosta, Georgia. It encompasses retail and service spaces, along with several restaurant areas. This project includes nearly 20,000 square feet of rentable space with a potential of 9,000 square feet of additions. Each unit is differentiated by a complimenting storefront with uniquely designed arches and awnings. The use of natural tones in brick and stucco lends itself to the open-air atmosphere of outdoor retail space with breezeways and sidewalks linking the areas. The landscaping and signage accentuates the architecture as well.

IPG provided design and master planning to for the Parrott Medical Clinic expansion. The existing facility was 2,911 SF. Work included a parking lot expansion along with expansions at both the front of the facility and the rear. The phased expansions allowed for the facility to remain open during the entire project. Front expansion included a new 368 SF lobby, a re-worked administrative space, and a patient waiting/observation area. The new façade is inherently part of the signage, providing facility branding both day and night. A 1,312 SF addition to the rear of the building allowed for additional exams rooms, triage and support space. Total renovation totaled 4,591 SF.

This new 4,524 SF pharmacy is a part of the North Ashley Center and was completed via Design-Build delivery method. The facility and adjoining gift shop make up 3,222 SF. The location of check-out was key in maintaining customer flow and ease of use. An adjacent shell lease space make up the additional 1,302 SF.

IPG was the Architect of Record for the original facility, renovation, masterplan, and most recently a reroof. This 46,750 SF conference center was designed to meet the assembly, conference, and convention needs of Valdosta and Lowndes County. It includes an exhibition hall, meeting/banquet spaces, public circulation areas, support services, food service, administration areas, and the Office of Convention and Tourism.

IPG's office facility features strong ties to the company’s history and a purposeful vision for its future. It was designed to provide space for a rapidly growing staff, which reflects and builds upon the open office environment created in the company’s original facility designed in 1979. With no hierarchy of spaces, workstations are uniformly designed regardless of position or status within the firm, thus fostering open communication and unity among the staff. Common workspaces are abundant within the open studio, with senior staff members interacting with interns sharing ideas and providing guidance. With a mezzanine level open to the studio area, upper and lower levels interact as well. The north-facing glass curtain wall floods the studio with soft northern light and provides a strong visual connection to the exterior. Visitors are welcomed to the facility through a basket-weave brick parking area which transitions up to the main entrance. Expansion of the facility, currently at 6,653 SF, can be extended from the east elevation.
