The rehabilitation of Reynolda Village into a commercial center required sensitivity in adapting a historic 1916 farm group into a shopping center. The design intent was to preserve the strong character of a village in a pastoral setting while dramatically changing the use. Parking lots, walkways and service areas were integrated without visual obstruction among the bungalows and farm buildings to maintain the social hierarchy of the era. New structures and existing building modifications were patterned after the original architectural fabric and palette of the farm group.
