Team FMD eagerly anticipates our annual golf outing for numerous reasons: it’s a chance for golfers to play, to enjoy the outdoors on a lovely day, but mostly, it allows us to step away from the office, relax, and have a great time together. And what a fantastic time it was! We couldn’t help but enjoy Clay’s infectious laughter, the cheers, the playful antics, and the celebratory high fives, along with our visits to the clubhouse. A surprise of the day was when Debbie, a non-golfer, made an incredible shot that had everyone around her cheering, as we thought it might just be a hole in one! These memories will last, and we can’t wait for our next annual outing to do it all over again.

Check out PART 2 of WKYC Channel 3 Cleveland Interviewing Melanie!

In this segment, Melanie discusses FMD Architects' contributions to animal shelter design and how thoughtful architecture is enhancing outcomes for shelters throughout the region and nationally. Exceptional design has the potential to transform lives — including the lives of animals waiting for their forever homes.

Animal shelters face a unique design challenge:

Stress Reduction: Animals in distress require calming environments.

Functional Spaces: Staff and volunteers need efficient areas to carry out their demanding tasks.

Welcoming Atmosphere: Potential adopters should feel invited, not overwhelmed.

Sustainable Facilities: Organizations need operationally sound and sustainable infrastructure.

Successfully addressing all of these needs at once demands more than just good intentions; it calls for expertise, empathy, and a profound understanding of how people and animals interact with their surroundings.

At FMD Architects, mission-driven design is central to our work. We take pride in supporting organizations that make a difference and assisting them in creating the environments necessary for their success.

A special thank you to WKYC Channel 3 for allowing us to share this important work with the Cleveland community.

We are thrilled that WKYC NBC Channel 3 reached out to our firm to discuss animal welfare and how modern shelter design is helping pet adoptions in Northeast Ohio.

Melanie shared The Five Freedoms which is an established minimum standard to ensure animals under human care experience humane lives by minimizing suffering and enhancing their well-being.

THE FIVE FREEDOMS
Freedom from Hunger and Thirst
Freedom from Discomfort
Freedom from Pain, Injury, or Disease
Freedom to Express Normal Behavior
Freedom from Fear and Distress
