Ivy Tech Community College Bakery

Fort Wayne, Indiana

  • Education

Elevatus Architecture completed a remodel of an existing unoccupied space to create a specialty bakery for the Culinary Arts department to expand the ever-growing program. Architectural work included demolition of existing classroom and offices, space planning and layout of new kitchen including workstation spaces and equipment coordination, storage, bulk food storage (perishable and non-perishable), office, and a public entrance.

Since this particular project was to be located in an existing space, the major challenge was allocation of the program within the constraints of the building, to ensure the owner’s requirements were met. While the use of the space is primarily for the Culinary Arts program, it also serves as a bakery for campus events held in the adjacent multipurpose room.

The layout of the program located the bakery proper on the south half of the existing space to allow visual connection between the corridor and bakery. Large glass doors and windows were installed in the corridor wall to the building occupants for visual cues of the new space. The remaining program was on the north half of the existing space to accommodate delivery and storage of goods. The design also accounted for food service from the existing kitchen, through the extra wide bakery hall connector and preparation space.

We had the great opportunity to work on the Ponca City Public Safety Center in Oklahoma!

Elevatus was brought on to design the 16-bed jail. The facility operates as a modern secure detention center, with distinctive Elevatus trademarks like advantageous sightlines and a high-efficiency layout.

We were proud to work on a proficient team alongside @adgblatt  and Redstone Architects to deliver the new Ponca City Public Safety Center.

When our County was looking for an architecture firm to help us with the process of building a new jail, Elevatus was an easy choice for me. This was a project entirely out of my skill set, but I knew we only had one chance to get it right. Their (Elevatus) knowledge and professionalism is unmatched.

Elevatus stays involved throughout the entire construction process. This high level of service is very important to us because things inevitably shift and change despite the best planning. We need them to stay involved so that our budget is not affected. In the end, our projects are delivered on time and on budget and Elevatus contributes to that "now expected" outcome.
