    Posted 12 days ago
    Hello,

    We are looking for recommended third parties (firms or individuals) to perform comprehensive space assessment of storage and facilities. Does anyone have any recommendations for Georgia or surrounding states?

    All my best,

    Dear Lana and Yanique,

    CCAHA offers Space Planning as a service for collections. One of our preservation specialists, Katie Lowe, has been training in this for several years, so she approaches projects from a preservation basis, with space assessment expertise- she's fantastic. You can see our description and contact her here: https://ccaha.org/services/space-planning-services

    (Disclaimer: I work at CCAHA but I'm not part of this service wing).

     Good luck in your search!

    Greetings -
    Sandra Vicchio & Associates, LLC  (SVA) is a woman-owned architectural firm based in the Baltimore, MD region, that focuses almost exclusively on cultural projects. I would include SVA on any list of individuals or firms to reach out to regarding a space assessment.

    Sandra was the lead architect on the renovation of the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC and has extensive experience in working with all sorts and sizes of museums and libraries. She puts together highly collaborative teams to work on projects that range from master-planning, feasibility studies, and space assessments to design and construction of renovations and new buildings.

    Full disclosure: I have worked with Sandra on a number of projects over the last few years.

    Happy to answer any questions.
