New Canopy Entrance

Sometimes a simple addition can transform a building. We were asked to design a new canopy for the entrance of a state run treatment facility.

It had to be free-standing yet have a "light" connection to the building; fire sprinklers and non-combustible materials would be required; existing footings should be used if possible.
