Architectural Record Features DLR Group’s Transformation of Cleveland Museum of Natural History

Our firm’s commitment to sustainability, thoughtful attention to user experience, and expertise in integrated design shines in this multiphase transformation project.

The museum is important to a lot of locals, and there was certainly nostalgia for what it was. Our office, being a fully integrated studio, worked on every facet of the project, from design services to mechanical and engineering. We transformed the museum and changed the user experience, but it remains rooted in Cleveland, and to us, that worked out perfectly.”
