Habitat for Humanity of Wicomico County

Back to Practice Area

The renovation of the historic shirt factory seamlessly blends its rich industrial heritage with contemporary functionality, transforming it into a dynamic space housing corporate offices and a ReStore location. Central to the design is the preservation and celebration of the building’s original features, including its intricately restored iron framework, warm wood roof decking, and aged pine flooring. These elements, thoughtfully retained and highlighted, create a vibrant, industrial aesthetic that pays homage to the structure’s storied past while fostering an inspiring and modern work environment. The juxtaposition of historical materials with sleek, updated finishes offers a unique character, making the space both a nod to its history and a beacon of adaptive reuse.
