Spitzer Volkswagen
Amherst, OH
Corporate brand redesign. The predominately glass-front building creates a bright, translucent showroom showcasing the finishes and accessories of the vehicles. The new Volkswagen Dealership achieves a high-tech look with its outwardly sloping columns. A “Dayliter” system virtually eliminates electric lighting of service area during the day. Because the site is below street level, one design challenge was to draw attention to the dealership from freeway passers-by. Arkinetics’ design solution was to reorient the building and its position on the site.
