Case Study
Reviving West Point's Historic Building
Buffy, West Point's hometown designer, led a remarkable renovation project in Downtown West Point. She transformed a historic building into the town's premier destination by actively involving the community. Residents contributed old sports memorabilia, repurposed as accessories for the sports-themed bar, creating a unique hometown charm. Buffy's vision not only revitalized the building but also fostered a strong connection between the establishment and the proud community it serves.
