Project
Info
CICADA partnered with a local developer, and worked closely with long term tenant, Reformation, the nationally recognized sustainable clothing brand, to revive a 1915 double-shotgun commercial property along New Orleans’ vibrant Magazine Street. Working in close coordination with Reformation’s design team, we approached the renovation with equal respect for the building’s historic character and the brand’s modern, eco-conscious identity.
Once a weathered early-20th-century structure, the property has been thoughtfully brought back to life through sensitive restoration, strategic structural upgrades, and a refined material palette that echoes Reformation’s clean, minimalist aesthetic. Original architectural features were preserved wherever possible, while new insertions were designed to feel intentional and quietly contemporary.
