Our hearts are deeply saddened to hear the news of Megan's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time. Megan worked with us as an Architectural Designer and was involved in several of our projects. As we reflect back on her time working with us, we are reminded of her radiant personality. Megan had a way of always making you smile. Her wide laughing grin, her happy face, her eyes full of excitement, her enthusiasm for anything, her wonder and joy in all things - it just made you smile. We will not forget her smile - or her energy. She knew how to work hard. Getting a master's degree in architecture is not easy, but she plowed through and was undaunted and totally recharged by any encouragement. Megan was fifth gear, all out, totally ready for whatever was next and eager to take on new challenges with an unmasked glee that amazed us. That's her legacy at this office.
A tremendous tribute to your colleague and friend. A reminder to impact in life no matter the length of it.
My condolences to each of you on the loss of your precious friend and co-worker...
Such a wonderful tribute for Megan.
Rest In Peace Megan. Sending prayers 🙏🏻
Beautiful tribute to an amazing friend. 😢

Let’s talk about problem solving! How do you construct an infill wall on a historic building (located in a dense urban site) to compound the issues that scaffolding placement could not be performed and using a swing stage to apply the wall system isn’t an option? Our architects here at Architectural Partners created concept ideas to solve this exact problem with the use of panelization. Structural Engineering (provided by Master Engineers and Designers) had to be performed on the prefabricated wall panels for transportation and hoisting purposes. Here are some photos from The Krise Building project showing how to achieve these unforeseen issues at a construction site (construction overseen and provided by Jameson-Lewis). The process worked out great and ended up being the best way to construct this wall, even if we had an option of scaffolding!
Awesome and amazing!!
Architectural Partners involvement with Sweet Briar College in the past year has made our firm proud of the association we have with a college that is advancing agriculture right on their own property. It is reported that the number of women agriculture producers have increased in VA and SBC is helping to increase the numbers even more with encouraging and supporting their students. They have recently began the construction of a 96’ x 270’ greenhouse that AP and Coleman Adams is constructing. On September 20th, Sen. Mark Warner and U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue attended the ribbon cutting for the greenhouse. — 📸: Sweet Briar College, Cassie Foster @ Sweet Briar College

We got to talk to them about Elevations and Renderings during their unit on Architecture, and they showed us the lighthouses and birdhouses they were designing! The week ended with the sweetest thank you card from all of the students, which showcased this elevation drawing of their school on the cover by one of the 5th graders. Amazing!
Happy Birthday, Dusty!! We hope you have the best day celebrating with family and friends! 🥳
Happy Birthday, Dusty!
