Integrated Architecture and Lamar Construction have designed and built the new Lamar Construction Headquarters

Integrated Architecture designed the largest structural steel cantilever in the U.S. to showcase the steel erection capability of Lamar Construction in their new corporate head quarters. Recognized as master builders, Lamar Construction’s office literally illustrates the nuts and bolts of their work as massive steel beams, painted construction orange, define individual work space, creating rigid boundaries that flow into common space. The 5,200 SF cantilever floats above the construction company’s tool room and carpentry shop, giving the management team an uncompromised view of the surrounding countryside, while creating a landmark building that’s reportedly stopped traffic on the near by freeway. Lamar Construction and Integrated Architecture have worked together as design/build partners on numerous projects ranging from small retail tenant fit-outs to 300,000 SF expansions of industrial manufacturing complexes.
