The Smith+Associates office is located at the site of Rochester’s old city dog pound and incorporates subtle reminders of it’s history throughout. It’s open configuration is meant to encourage interaction between departments. A dynamic space that is always changing, the office utilizes the use of reclaimed material to infuse art into the architecture to serve as inspiration for employees and clients.
