Liberty Green Community Center has received the highest award given by the Kentuckiana Masonry Institute for an all-brick project.
This mixed-use project completed in October 2010 for the Louisville Metro Housing Authority was an exercise in contextual recognition, high-tech innovation, and sensitive detailing. The building was recently certified LEED Silver.
Comments from the award jury include:
•The brick band details are impressive. Well executed details in a simple building form.
•The implementation of simple horizontal detailing and varying bond patterns create a dynamic yet quiet vocabulary.
•Sincere attention has been paid to brick patterning, resulting in a cohesive project.
•While somewhat unassuming from the macro view, the closer one gets to this project the more the beautiful detailing and patterning becomes apparent.
