Currently operating in a dilapidated and stitched together warehouse, Project L.I.F.T. needed an upgrade in both size and looks for the growing program. A local counseling center for Martin County’s youth, Project L.I.F.T. utilizes popular trades as a counseling tool to help kids succeed in life after they graduate.
The owner wanted it to have the industrial feel that the children would experience in the working worlds of these trades. The linear building has large garage bays on either end, with administrative and learning in the center. Deep overhangs allow the work space to extend to the outside, adding an extra 10 feet of covered space that can be used when the garage doors are open.
