Excited to work w/ Bridging the Gap Dev. on a transformative project in #Pittsburgh’s #Uptown. Repurposing + expanding a public works building, adding offices and retail, the project is designed to meet #PassiveHouse stds – which call for a 70% reduction in energy use.
It’s also part of a larger project that will add affordable housing to the neighborhood.

The exterior design of The ICON sets the tone for the evening before you walk through the doors. These iridescent, perforated panels shift in color as you move around the outside of the venue creating a dynamic look from day to night! Can you guess the name of the color?
Hint: The color is fit for a “Prince”, even if it was used in 1984 💜
We design a lot of #spaces, but GBBN’s Sarah Kusuma Rubritz has been designing for #outerspace. Celebrating @iss’s 20 years in orbit, she joined @worlddesignorg’s #OrbitalUniversity #DesignChallenge.

Simple yet beautiful, @cincychildren’s new utility plant is clad in alternating glossy and matte black metal panels and punctuated by semi-reflective, lightly frosted windows. This creates an engaging rhythm for pedestrians while reflecting neatly framed images of its surroundings.
GBBN partnered with @zgfarchitects (Design Architect/Architect of Record).
