The US Navy through NAVFAC selected BHDG Architects to design a complete gut and renovation of the existing Navy Selections Building 761 to create an Officer Selections Committee Dining and Meeting Facility. The thematic basis for the design was abstracted from the nautical compass representing the Selection Board’s mission to guide and direct the advancement of Navy commissioned and non-commissioned officers in support of Navy strategy and programs. The project intent was to maximize the impact of the existing building architecture thru the interior renovation of a new dining facility with high end finishes and improved kitchen / serving area flow and equipment. The project design was fast tracked with the design and pre-ordering of custom design components including lighting, fabric swags, and custom wood design elements.
