Darland worked alongside architects and owners to transform a one-time restaurant into a modern school and salon for Capitol School of Hairstyling and Esthetics in Omaha. The project included the construction of a new basement, first-floor addition and complete replacement of all interior and exterior finishes. The aging building made it necessary to replace mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire sprinklers and insulation. The project also called for several core structural improvements to meet safety codes.
