Albuquerque Country Club

Project Description:

Constructed originally in 1927, the club had numerous incongruous additions designed by many of Albuquerque's most noted architectural firms. In taking on the project we saw our mission as - to capture the spirit and charm of the original facility, bring it back to life, keep the best of the additions, while getting rid of the rest. The facility had every type of building construction system within its envelope (masonry, concrete, adobe, wood and steel). After going through an extensive master planning process in which many "sacred ideas" were challenged, the new design reconfigured much of the site and building layouts. A new entry was designed along with renovated lobby, new bar, renovated dining room, banquet room addition, new kitchen, pro-shop and fitness center.
