Schoel Engineering

For over a century, Schoel Engineering has been a cornerstone of Birmingham’s infrastructure. Their reimagined corporate headquarters, housed in a robust 1937 industrial building, now embodies their legacy of innovation while inspiring future generations. The renovation strategically stripped away outdated interiors to celebrate the building’s original character, showcasing exposed concrete ceilings and meticulously restored wood-framed glass walls that now flood the open-plan offices with natural light.

The design fosters a dynamic and collaborative environment, transforming the once-rigid structure into a modern hub of creativity. An unexpected yet invaluable addition, an outdoor deck, provides a vibrant gathering space for employees and guests. The open steel stair serves as a sculptural focal point, encouraging interaction and a sense of community. Schoel Engineering’s revitalized headquarters stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design, breathing new life into a historic structure and creating an inspiring workplace that honors the past while embracing the future.
