“The design goal for Cherapa Place was three-fold,” explained Jeff Hazard of Koch Hazard Architects in Sioux Falls. “We wanted to meet the basic needs of our client, which led to a 140,000-square-foot building. We also wanted the building to be ‘of Sioux Falls,’ and use local stone in an organic and innovative way. And thirdly, we wanted the building to be ‘green.’”
