The Fund for American Studies (TFAS) is a non-profit organization promoting the advancement of freedom, democracy and free-market economies. Studio Twenty Seven Architecture was asked to assist TFAS with an adaptive reuse of their historic structure to meet expanding educational and office needs.

The 8,000 SF existing space in their historic building was compartmentalized and needed to be reconfigured in a more open way to meet the organization’s expanding size. To meet the goal to open up the space and to reflect the ideology of freedom and free-markets, the architects demolished the interior partitions and designed new walls to program a more effective working and learning environment.
