Beautifully crafted buildings come standard. A commitment to service separates us.

Congratulations to the Kasyer Lincoln project team, including @kayserfordmadison, @gba_design and @vierbicherwi, on receiving an @ibmadison Commercial Design Award for Best New Development or Renovation.

Through this project, Kayser provides Madison access to Lincoln`s Black Label experience, which was not previously available in this area. Unique features include an in-floor “runway,” highlighting new Lincolns and green-built features. A living green wall hangs in the vehicle bay, which acts as a natural air filter, filtering toxins such as VOCs, and carbon monoxide.

May is National Preservation Month. To celebrate Madison’s heritage, we wanted to share the history of Lucille, a restoration project we completed with @opnarchitects.

Built in the late 1920s, Lucille was first home to Madison’s Capital City Bank, located in the triangular blocks forming a ring around the Capitol. Over the years, this building was renovated numerous times to serve as a radio station and later the Isthmus newspaper.

A renovation of this building in the 1970s covered many of its historic characteristics. The design and construction of Lucille sought to restore much of its original charm and character.

These efforts include:
• A lower-level lounge, located in what was once a vault for Capital City Bank and later a furrier, seats another 30 to 40 people along a banquette bench that wraps around three sides of the vault.
• Uncovering and restoring “Cream City” brick as well as a “ghost” sign which reads “Future home of the Capital City Bank”.

Happy Arbor Day!🌳

At Ideal Builders, we believe in not just constructing buildings, but also preserving nature’s beauty. Introducing our Landmark Oaks project — a testament to sustainable development and thoughtful design.

Standing tall in Madison, Landmark Oaks is a 110,000 sqft. design, boasting a five-story Class A office building shell and core, complete with underground parking. But what truly sets this project apart is its integration with nature.

The entire project team took great care to preserve century-old oak trees gracing the center of the property, ensuring they remain a cherished part of the landscape. The result is a harmony of urban modernity and a natural connection to Madison’s history.

To honor these majestic oaks, our partners at @potter.lawson designed a leaf-patterned ceiling in the halls of Landmark Oaks, reminiscent of sunlight filtering through an overhead tree.

As we celebrate Arbor Day, we invite you to join us in honoring nature and sustainable development.
