<br />5. FIRM'S RELATED EXPERIENCE <br /> <br />Because we view each project as unique in <br />program and context, there is a broad variety in <br />the character of our illustrated work. Libraries <br />and community ccnters designed by our team <br />members have ranged in size from the 3,000 <br />square-foot South Novato Library, located <br />in a renovated aircraft hanger at the historic <br />Hamilton Air Force Base, to the 88,000 sguare- <br />fOOl Marin Jewish Community Campus, which <br />includes a community ccmer, K-8 day school, <br />library and 200 child licensed day care center. <br />We have worked in a variety of settings from <br />dense urban areas to expansive suburban sites. <br /> <br />We always enjoy the opportunity to incorporate <br />pleasant finishing touches such as cozy <br />seating, warm fireplaces, cafes and public art <br />in our projects, and we have been successful <br />in making these elements of comfort and art <br />integral with the buildings. Recent examples <br />include the Dublin Library (BS1\ Architects, <br />Mark Schatz, Principal-in-Charge), which has three <br />distinct art installations by different artists, and <br />the Almaden Library and Community Center <br />in San Jose, which includes works by three <br />artists in four distinct areas of the building. <br />Bond funds remaining as construction neared <br />completion for the Millbrae Library were <br />though fully used by stained glass artist Peter <br />Mollica of Oakland, with whom we had <br />worked on two previous projects; he created <br /> <br />-p <br />:~ ~\. <br />I 1 I <br />tJ <br /> <br />-- <br /> <br />l!lt., <br /> <br /> <br />- --....... <br /> <br /> <br />~ <br />C <br />c: <br />C <br />r; <br />c <br />r:: <br />r <br />1:: <br />C <br />c: <br />C <br />C <br />I:': <br />~ <br />-= <br />[:: <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />c: <br />C <br />C <br />J;;. <br />~ <br />c: <br />I: <br />I: <br />c: <br />I: <br /> <br />12 large windows for the building, which have <br />been met with great enthusiasm from the <br />community.
