Project Description
FROM THE AIA TENNESSEE:
The Lay Low is
the adaptive reuse of a 40 x 40 CMU building that formally housed a beauty shop
and the Lay Low Lounge, a men’s gambling club in the revitalized community of
Chattanooga’s Southside. The architects, who live across the street, bought the property with the intent to
design an age-in-place, accessible residence for their aging parents, currently
used as a bed and breakfast.
