Overlooking the Patapsco River, this waterfront renovation transforms a dated multi-purpose building into a light-filled lounge and amenity hub for a 400-slip marina. GriD redesigned the space to include a central lounge, gym, pool courtyard, and bathhouse, all inspired by Mediterranean and coastal themes. Warm woods, soft tones, and natural light bring a relaxed atmosphere to the compact footprint, while maximizing views of the Baltimore waterfront. The result is a welcoming retreat for boaters and guests alike.

Planned as a future Tapestry by Hilton, this 110-key hotel introduces elevated hospitality to Maryland’s Eastern Shore. As the first phase of a larger mixed-use redevelopment, it features a rooftop restaurant, ballroom, meeting spaces, and a third-floor pool overlooking the town—offering an urban hotel experience uncommon in the region.

GriD served as Architect of Record for Death & Co’s D.C. outpost, transforming a second-story space into the cocktail brand’s fourth location. In collaboration with AAmp Studio, the project included a full interior renovation, exterior patio refurbishment, and the addition of new restrooms and lounge spaces.

Located along the Patapsco River in Baltimore’s Canton neighborhood, this waterfront restaurant and floating bar, Drift, redefines local hospitality with Mediterranean-inspired design. Drawing from the whitewashed architecture and relaxed atmosphere of the Balearic Islands, the project features lime-washed surfaces, vaulted interiors, and panoramic harbor views. The design blends coastal aesthetics with Baltimore’s industrial charm, creating a unique waterfront dining experience. This destination combines thoughtful architecture, immersive ambiance, and elevated hospitality in a setting rooted in place.

This waterfront renovation reimagines a marina hub beside a historic 1800s lighthouse in Baltimore. The project includes expanded boater amenities, a redesigned pool and tiki bar, and a new Mediterranean-inspired restaurant with panoramic harbor views. A wood-wrapped exterior and operable glass walls connect interior spaces to the surrounding waterfront.

GriD provided design-assist services for The Merriweather Lakehouse Hotel in Columbia, MD, enhancing the exterior envelope, interior amenities, and overall branding. This transformative renovation and large-scale addition reimagined the existing hotel into a premier destination on the lake. Closely tied to the nearby Merriweather Post Pavilion, the hotel is now positioned as the ideal stay for touring musicians and concertgoers alike.

Located on the southern edge of one of the most important public open spaces in the City, this hotel is the conversion of an existing modernist office tower. While the relatively small and irregularly shaped floor plate (with an open air atrium) was a poor fit for a contemporary office setting, it is perfect fit for a 110-key boutique hotel.  And while the horizontal site connections are remarkable, perhaps the most unique set of connections occur in section, from a rooftop restaurant with panoramic views across the City, to a subterranean day spa/bath complex which will inform the hotel branding.
