Niello Land Rover Design Published in CMACN "Profiles in Architecture"
July 2003 - The firm's use of concrete masonry block as a key component in the design of Niello Land Rover Rocklin was highlighted in the Concrete Masonry Association of California and Nevada (CMACN)'s Profiles in Architecture Publication.
The design of this 12,500 square-foot facility was conceived to complement the brand image and character of Land Rover products. Set amid mature California oak trees, the center showcases the four-wheel drive expertise of Land Rover with the use of durable building materials, rustic landscaping and site materials. The facility, which is located just east of Sacramento, was designed for high freeway visibility on one side and sensitivity to the surrounding neighborhood on the other, while adhering to corporate design standards. The concrete masonry block used in the design of the service area is visible to the Reno/Sacramento/San Francisco corridor.
