2012 Recap

2012 has been a great year for Visbeen Architects.  We look back at the ups and downs and cannot help but be thankful.  Thankful for the opportunities we have had, the people we have met, the clients we have served and the projects we have worked on.  We have shared what has been happening along the way in our little corner of the architectural industry, so we thought we would give our own little countdown and recap of just some of our events of 2012 on this, the eve of a new year...<br /><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Top Five of 2012</span></b><br /><br /><b>5.  MoDiv</b>:  Our project with Rockford Construction for a retail incubator downtown opened it's doors in January and finished off the year by winning the Ideation award from the ABC Construction Awards for Innovation.  It was a pleasure to be a part of such an innovative retail design in the heart of our hometown.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2GN1vzWwkchBjYDjRTXchisQT8Gs1IyWIjF1g1gGuP70L6DUndeV3ja_mzwrjjfmh9ioEu9WGDTy7rK6weCsOkKOsgZCeg9MRnhixf8DLZZ-cQzbJ5215yF6BleCS-aHIGxYJQKAckF3o/s1600/MODIV-EXT-15.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2GN1vzWwkchBjYDjRTXchisQT8Gs1IyWIjF1g1gGuP70L6DUndeV3ja_mzwrjjfmh9ioEu9WGDTy7rK6weCsOkKOsgZCeg9MRnhixf8DLZZ-cQzbJ5215yF6BleCS-aHIGxYJQKAckF3o/s320/MODIV-EXT-15.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><i>Read more here: </i><br /><i>MoDiv's grand opening - <a href="http://visbeen-associates-architects.blogspot.com/2012/01/modiv-grand-opening.html">http://visbeen-associates-architects.blogspot.com/2012/01/modiv-grand-opening.html</a></i><br /><i>MoDiv is a hit!

I'm dreaming of a....warmer location

I hope you all are enjoying lovely celebrations with family and friends during these holidays.  Here in West Michigan, our white Christmas came a day late, but we are looking at a snow covered landscape now!  Let's be honest, raise your hand if the thought has crossed your mind wishing you were in a tropical location right about now (I know you can't see me, but my hand is up).  If you are looking to get away from the ho-hum after the holidays funk, even if it is just in your mind, here are some images of our design of a resort in Costa Rica that might assist you with your day dreaming. <div><br /></div><div>I may be wearing a wool sweater right now, but after looking at these beautiful images, in my mind, I'm lounging in one of those beach chairs sipping a Piña Colada in front of that pool!</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Deck the Halls with Ugly Sweaters

Over the weekend, <a href="http://www.visbeen.biz/">Visbeen Architects</a> and <a href="http://www.gmb.com/">GMB Architecture + Engineering</a> celebrated our first Christmas party as a joint team.  We cleaned out our closets, borrowed from family/friends and visited thrift stores to find some of the ugliest Christmas apparel you ever did see for the occasion.  The evening was full of food, fun and plenty of merriment, and though the sweaters may have been frightful, the company was delightful.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
