Client: F&M Bank
Architect: Fernald Design Group
Budget: 3.3 million
Size: 10,649 SF
The Los Altos branch is one in a series of local offices constructed for F&M Bank and is a showcase of innovative design. The building exterior marries a combination of Alucobond aluminum paneling, sandstone imported from India, limestone block and a curtainwall glass system that leads seamlessly into the vaulted, two story interior. The fully fire sprinklered building also features moment frames with exposed structural bracing, stone flooring and an elevator which leads to the 3,236 SF second floor. An additional 7,800 SF retail shell building was also part of Bremco's scope of work.
