Terra Shimbashi, founder of Elemental Architecture & Interior Inc., turned a dated, pink stucco building with extensive leaks into an up-to-date building with enduring classic appeal. The project included a complete building envelope rehabilitation including new roof overhangs, roof membrane, aluminum windows, balcony membranes, stucco cladding and hardi board fascia trim.
