Trending Now Promotions
Project Scope: New retail and production facility
Location: Waunakee, Wisconsin
Architect: Sieger Architects
Trending Now Promotions’ new 8,075-square-foot facility in Waunakee, Wisconsin has more than doubled its previous retail and production space. The finished building is an attractive one-story wood-frame facility that features extensive glass and masonry on the building’s façade. Interior finishes in the retail area include the use of luxury vinyl plank flooring and dark blue accent walls to enhance the customer experience. The production area is completely air-conditioned and features colored concrete floors.
Before construction could begin, the project team needed to modify the plans that had been created by another developer for the property. These changes incorporated additional requirements Trending Now wanted as part of the finished building. The Friede team completed extensive value engineering options and helped suggest modifications to the plans that had been initially created by Sieger Architects. These adjustments allow for future expansion of this building and for the development of a second similar-sized building on the site. This project was completed in just five months and was delivered under budget, despite extensive rains and the daily challenges of a global pandemic with enhanced employee safety protocols.
This project was recognized by the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Wisconsin as a 2021 Silver Project of Distinction.
