Preservation of traditions, while embracing the future industry
Technology is changing every part of daily life. When a regional bank owner asked the architect to design a new branch, it was clear this was a unique opportunity. The goal was to honor traditional banking while embracing the future of the industry.
Thrasher achieved this through smart design choices. Strategic massing, a modern exterior palette, and a warm, refined interior brought the vision to life. A tall glass tower and LED-lit façade now serve as a beacon in the community. As night falls, the building glows—drawing attention like a modern lighthouse.
In the Details
Wood cladding lines the tower’s interior wall and matches the custom casework. White quartz countertops and metal accents add contrast and balance. Together, these materials create a modern, inviting space. Paired with the glass façade and open layout, the design promotes a sense of transparency between the bank and its patrons.
An operable partition separates the conference room from the main lobby. It maintains privacy while offering flexibility for larger staff trainings, community events, and after-hours gatherings.
Every design choice supports the evolving role of technology in banking. At the same time, the space honors tradition and welcomes long-time customers.
