One might not expect to find a comfortable, Georgian oasis nestled in
the heart of the Arizona desert. One would definitely not expect that
oasis to be a modular building. However, with ease of construction being
a main concern, Augusta Ranch developers insisted on utilizing modular
construction. The elimination of costly middlemen through single-source
construction management would lead to undeniable time and cost savings.
Not to mention, residential neighbors would be happy with the structure’s
aesthetic appeal, as no detail need be spared, inside or out, by our unique
simultaneous construction method.
Modeled after the South’s famous Augusta Golf Course, this restaurant
and retail golf pro-shop’s sprawling verandah and exterior brick
veneer wainscot exemplify colonial splendor. Elegance abounds in the French
light windows and doors, wooden lap-siding, and delicate carriage lights.
A canopied entryway welcomes guests into the plush interior, which features
intimate alcoves, pendant lighting fixtures, and built-in seating. With
its interior decorative base, cornice boards, and crown molding, Augusta
Ranch exudes fine craftsmanship, literally from floor to ceiling.
Developers were so certain this building would meet the needs of their
exclusive property that they made it a permanent facility, utilizing a
slab-on-grade floor and foundation system compatible with current Arizona
construction trends. Hence, the floorless modules were manufactured in
our plant and then craned onto the site, upon completion. The unusually
high ceiling heights and complex roof structure allowed us to innovatively
combine slab-on-grade, modular, and component construction methods. As
such, the large hip, 5:12 sloped roof was actually constructed with component
trusses and installed at the site.
By handling all aspects of this building procurement, from design and
permits to final installation, including coordination with the interior
designer, we allowed our client to sit back and truly enjoy a taste of
southern comfort.
